Inspiration for microbreaks away from caring, support, self care and wellness.

Our community of #UnpaidCarers share their advice on how we can best support someone with a mental health condition. And how to support ourselves in the process. What would you add? ➡️. https://t.co/AWvdUk2c9r #MentalHealth

Hi @BorisJohnson. Today I'm one of 135k @alzheimerssoc supporters urging you to #CureTheCareSystem. We demand that social care reform starts this year. While dementia isn't curable yet, the care system is. Please don't let us down

I love tea! Any biscuit goes well as far as I’m concerned, it’s basically mood dependent 😉

[National Tea Day @Nationalteaday]

Tea & biscuits are perfect bedfellows and give us treasured little moments of joy. We've combined our knowledge of tea and with the flavours of the sweet treats you love to come up with these delicious pairings. Give one a try and discover a new taste sensation on #nationalteaday

I bought some boots on the internet. Now the internet keeps on offering me boots, not realising that the last thing I presently need is boots. I'm starting to think all this anxiety about Artificial Intelligence eventually taking over the world is bollocks.

@Jennife10651535 I know how you feel 😢

Cheers to the weekend! It’s been a crazy week juggling work and Dads emergency GP appointments.
But here’s to Friday nights with no where to be but here 🥂

I went to buy milk and may have got sidetracked browsing around the shops that are now open.
I didn’t buy anything (I didn’t need it) but it was a joy to be among the pretty things @ZARA

[Dementia UK @DementiaUK]

Admiral Nurse @JoeCost55776226 shared his (rhyming!) top tip for carers of people with #dementia about reaching out for support as early as possible after a #diagnosis of dementia. Find out more about how Dementia UK can support you here: https://t.co/j3MuPuSITY. #DementiaSupport

@edagoodman Try @TheBeakBrewery and the @HairyDogBrewery - love to support our local brewers! Enjoy 🍻

I would never have got through the last few years dealing with my Dads #dementia diagnosis without the support of my brother.
Unexpected joy is how much closer we now are 👩‍❤️‍👨

I loathe #fastfashion and try my best to be sustainable in everything I do, including clothing (which is hard sometimes when you love clothes as much as I do!)

At 2:30am on April 2nd, we had 43 kegs stolen by 2 men in the van below. As a family business that has been closed for most of year, we could’ve done without this. If you have info that may help, please get in touch, and please share so as many people can see this as possible.

Anxiety is something that creeps up on us as a carer. Lockdown hasn’t helped with making access to services more difficult than ever

Caring seriously impacted my mental health. Is this something you’ve experienced?

There may be blue skies out there but boy is it cold!
