A frank discussion about challenges of #GenderEquality V toxic masculinity - an issue I’ve heard many of the men in my life grapple with...

“#Loneliness is the feeling that you have fewer meaningful or emotional connections than you would like”
@OurSocialSpace mission is to create space for social connections within local communities

[SocialSpaceBelfast @OurSocialSpace]

The #loneliness survey found that people who often feel lonely score higher for social empathy & are better at spotting when someone else is feeling rejected or excluded.

The story so far of our work on building a Just and learning culture in Mersey Care. This isn’t easy but it’s very rewarding with staff and patients being co-beneficiaries. Easy to be cynical; been there. But take a look and let us know what you think. https://t.co/K84aabBEHy

MYTH: Asking someone if they've thought about #suicide risks putting the idea in their head
FACT: Offering support can help ease sense of isolation

Well done @thismorning for raising awareness on warning signs that a loved might be struggling
