Let’s talk #SeafarersDepression 4 a moment. In quoting all the horrific #mentalhealth statistics we often loose sight of the real people behind these numbers. So let’s for a moment remember every seafarer facing the reality of #DepressionAtSea #morethanstatistics @WellnessatSea

[Sailors' Society @SailorsSociety]

Seafarers around the world are missing their Christmas to bring us ours. For almost 1/5, this is compounded by anxiety for loved ones affected by the Ukraine war. Could you help a seafarer who may be feeling lonely, anxious or fearful this Christmas? 👉 https://t.co/nw6LZLWE4t
