Well, after eight years working as a Mental Health Nurse, I’ve taken the plunge and committed to a new adventure.

As of October, I will officially be a Mental Health Nursing Lecturer 😨😨.

Excited for what the future holds.

Thoroughly enjoyed attending and presenting at the Advance HE Teaching and Learning conference today in Sheffield.

My highlights from the British Personality Disorder conference was this poster from Suz Hemming highlighting her lived and clinical experience of “personality disorder”.

Benefits to a personality disorder diagnosis? This poster confirms all my gravest concerns.

Wishing everyone a lovely Christmas! For those who find the festive season difficult, know that you’re not alone - and remember to be kind to yourself. 🎄✨

‘To Catch a Copper’ @Channel4 makes for some uncomfortable watching. Heartbreaking seeing how they treated a woman experiencing a mental health crisis. 💔

[Harriet Burrows @Missburrows90]

@DrJohnABaker Substantial investment in pay and working conditions needed to address some of this. It’s important for nurses to feel their career is both sustainable and rewarding. People also need to have a good quality of life to deal with the challenges a choice to pursue nursing brings.

There is a real issue in nursing, starts from the first day at university, burnout by graduation, into a harshness reality. We need to prepare this generation for the future, and this requires the Universities & the NHS to be very different. https://t.co/3sImPGIwU6

Numbers studying nursing down sharply in all parts of England...lots of reasons (not just the bursary)... worry for staff in HEIs & future daft decisions leading to more substituon https://t.co/lnfxDNSLTt

Light night, pt2. ♥️

[John Baker @DrJohnABaker]

This is not a surprise...this crisis has been years in the making...leaders have failed to act...and the solutions are unlikely to work.

One of my favourite nights of the year ♥️ @LightNightLeeds #artinthedark

Mental health has just topped the list of biggest health concerns, according to the 2024 @Ipsos Global Healthcare Monitor study.

In England, over 2 million people are waiting for NHS mental health services. We need action.

We are happy to share that NHS Practitioner Health is now funded until March 2026! #NHSPractitionerHealth

It’s been 63 years since suicide was decriminalised in the UK. But so many of us still use the term ‘commit suicide’.

Why does it matter? Language that links suicide and crime can increase stigma and prevent people struggling with suicidal thoughts from speaking out.

If we choose language like ‘died by suicide’ or ‘took their own life’ we allow space for open conversations and compassion. Let’s choose our words carefully.
