Death is still a taboo subject.
Guest editors on @BBCr4today raising the taboo of death and grieving, something we struggle to talk about here in the UK. A great listen

"We've not spoken about grief enough before we have to confront it"
Hannah, Cenya and Huzaifah used their #R4Today guest edit to discuss what it's like losing a relative at a young age.
They were joined by Sir Andrew Strauss, whose foundation supports families with bereavement.
Nice to see one of our Trustees Consultant Neurologist @ValStevenson14

There are lots of books out there on gynae health, so we thought we would compile some of Team Eve's favourites!
Here is a selection of six books that are recommended by some of the staff at The Eve Appeal- all focussed on gynae health.
A thread🧵
.@JoCoxFoundation asked Talking Taboos to provide a few tips on creating connection for those organising events for @great_together & it looks like they have worked well! 🎉

During our Great Winter Get Together in January we focus on tackling the stigma of loneliness, particularly among young people.
Research consistently shows young people are the loneliest age group, but only 8% of the general public know this. Learn more⬇️

In the UK,
- In July 2014, @eveappeal, a women's cancer research charity, conducted a survey with 1000 women. It revealed that 65% of young women (18-25 years old) felt uncomfortable using the words vagina or vulva. (2/11) #TalkingTaboos
"When we tell people how we feel, sometimes they'll say: 'I feel your pain.'
But - what if someone really could feel your pain?"
Loving @helenamerriman series on @BBCRadio4 #Room5, especially this episode
Sparking conversations // Generating dialogue: #talkingtaboos

Connection is key 🫂
#talkingtaboos #loneliness #connection #CommunityEngagement #eventprofs
Telling your daughter her vulva is her vagina is like telling your son he has testicles and no penis and then just calling his penis his testicles cos you think saying penis as well is too much. It’s just a word. Vulva. Hard for me to say too, but that’s cos of history. Say it x
This week at @TRIGGERConvos with @GeorgieNight, @kat_jennings_ has been practicing her ninja skills and playing I Spy 👀 all to encourage deeper conversations, and foster stronger connections 🫂

Brilliant to hear ME being featured on @BBCWomansHour this morning.
#LongCovid has bought some much needed attention to #ME #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis - a long neglected and taboo disease. The renewed push for research is very welcome.
#talkingtaboos
About 250,000 people in the UK suffer from myalgic encepahalomyelitis (ME), also known as chronic fatigue syndrome. Nina Muirhead and @DocStrain discuss treatment and how research into long Covid could help people suffering from ME/CFS https://t.co/Je6EbEIrhJ
