It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek.

Feeling lonely is something that all of us can experience, which can have negative impacts on our health and wellbeing.

Explore ways to lift someone out of loneliness. It could help lift you up too ➡️ https://t.co/Kanb94IKyd #EveryMindMatters

Had a great first week at @NHSDigital; observed user research sessions and learnt so much already! Shout out to the pathways team for making me feel so welcome 😊

One of the first questions I ask from teams or stakeholders is, "what is the problem you're trying to solve?". Starting with the why, is still too often missed and instead we're jumping straight into the solutions.

Just a reminder that it’s okay not to be excited about restrictions lifting. It’s okay if you’re feeling anxious, or want to stay at home. The most important thing is to put yourself first, and to move at a pace you feel comfortable with 💚

This week we had our first Digital Forum since lockdown. I wrote a little something about it: Tears for Leeds https://t.co/oH5yjeAWI9 via @LinkedIn
