I'm in Oxford today with @louiselyons_ recording video conversations at the #OxBFRBconf meeting.
It's the start of something amazing, which will help people affected by Body Focused Repetitive Behaviours, and raise awareness of BFRBs, which are largely ignored & stigmatised
#TurnItUp was everything we anticipated and more 🥹 We couldn't of done it without you! Every single one of you that support our cause and engage with us online are so so valued and appreciated - you are pivotal in improving the youth mental health of this country.
Great to speak to @mrjamesob this morning OfCom’s regulations - can they turn the tide on the harms of social media for generations to come? And what about the generation currently at the mercy of harmful algorithms. We need to prioritise education, legislation & regulation now
A few of us working in and around Black mental health have been working behind the scenes on a new Black Mental Health Manifesto. Today is finally launch day ✊🏾
Follow @BMHManifesto to find out more later this morning.

'There are those who will say this is the snowflake generation, things aren't that bad and you're just a bit softer, what would you response to that be?'

With this Government you have to follow the money.
I asked the Govt which firms were contracted to supply schools with temporary accommodation.
They failed to give me the information. Now we find out a Tory donor's firm was given a £11.5 million contract.😯
My Point of Order👇🏾
