For too long, tackling mental health stigma has been seen as the responsibility of those who have experienced it. This is the time for change. Keep your eye out for the new @seemescotland campaign, coming 20 October. #SeeMeSeeUs @ListeningEar11 @CaithnessVolGrp

Tonight, come along. Thurso Community Cafe. A new group for men, a different type of gym, actively encouraging men’s well-being. If you are well, come along and support others, if you are feeling a bit flat and life is not so enjoyable then you too come along.

What a nice surprise! I got my copy of "Giving Voice to Diversity in Criminological Research: 'Nothing About Us Without Us'. It looks fab. I can't wait to read it. In Chapter 5, I make the case for re-storying offending behaviour as a normal response to #trauma.

We are hearing from people across Caithness that are exhausted, overwhelmed, worried, anxious, stressed, some are drinking excessively to cope - this pandemic affects everyone, one way or another. Be kind to yourself and others. Strong connections and support make a difference 💙
