I signed up for a LARP at #gencon so I reached out to the GM to say I was bringing a 6mo baby and could they incorporate that into my character?

I got a character sheet saying I was a minor noblewoman who had recently had a baby… or so it appeared to others. 1/3

Here’s what I mean.

When I start working clinically with an adult who has ADHD, one of the first things we do /1

It's #CarersWeek and we're looking forward to our 'Visible and Valued' drop in support session for carers with @hantsconnect on Wednesday. Drop us a line for the Teams link :)

[Hampshire County Council @hantsconnect]

If you're caring for someone, it can leave you less time to look after yourself and your own mental health.
It's important to reach out for support and get help if you need it.
There are lots of sources of support and information to help #CarersWeek
