Supportive friendships and family really do mean so much! Thanks for sharing Sharon 💕
Thanks @Beffy86 for shining a lived experience lens on #BigMood. My root into #kinshipcare was the ever changing landscape of #Bipolar; and I agree those living with #Bipolar can too often be misunderstood. I'm thankful my daughter has some amazing tried and tested friendships ❤️

‘A day we’d hoped for but sometimes wondered if it would happen. More importantly, this is the day thousands of Veterans who’s lives have been blighted by the cruel ban have been waiting for. It’s a true watershed moment for LGBT+ Veterans.’ - @CraigJonesMBE

'We need to not shy away from having difficult conversations about sexual harm and listen to the experiences of young people'
Powerful piece in @BigIssue on why we need to educate adults to id sexual harm & create space for young people to seek help.
