Let's end the judgement.

#LetsRethink

[Rethink Mental Illness @Rethink_]

Living with a mental illness can be hard.

The negative attitudes of others makes it harder.

That's why we're launching our new anti-stigma campaign, #LetsRethink.

That's a wrap on our #OxBFRBConf. I'm so grateful to everyone who organised, ran, catered, filmed/covered, funded, sponsored, spoke and attended both our scientific day at @morethanadodo and our community day at the University of Oxford's @OxPsychiatry.

[Jane Mackay @jemackay]

@BFRB_UK_Ireland, thank you so much for warmly welcoming me into your family this weekend. I am still processing all of the amazing moments and connections. You undoubtedly changed lives and the ripples of that will go on and on. #LivedExperienceLeadership at it's very finest 🙌

[Jane Mackay @jemackay]

Tomorrow at #OxBFRBConf it's the community day and I'm delighted to be joining some amazing folk to speak about turning #stigma into a super power 💫

@bridgetbradley I've got to get me one of those tote bags!

Understanding how to have conversations about self-harm is really important in reducing the stigma that can be a huge barrier to people opening up and getting support with it. 🧵 1/8 #SelfHarmAwarenessDay

[St Nicks #YorksGreenHeart @StNicksFields]

Our Nature Based Wellbeing Team took a dose of their own (nature) medicine this weekend, with an away day at Forest Quest with our Bushcraft tutor. Evey one enjoyed reconnecting with their wild side!

[Sue Baker OBE @suebakerTTC]

Thank you to everyone who has conversions to transform attitudes & change lives.

We started #timetotalk day many yrs ago to provide solidarity on 1 day. While there is far more needed to ensure timely access to quality MH services it’s still true that conversations change lives

Excuses to get outdoors this #MulticolouredMonday .Our Ecotherapy groups, including the Nature Photographers have been keeping a keen eye out for patches of colour among the gloom this week. If you spot anything eye-catching, we'd love to see your colour splashes!

[Rethink Mental Illness @Rethink_]

🚨 #BlueMonday is just a PR campaign made up to encourage people to buy flights.

It might feel like there's lots of things to be worried about right now, but a random Monday in January is not one of them.

💙 However you're feeling today, we're here for you.

Thank you so much everyone for your support after the break in we suffered yesterday. Our Recycling team are heading out trikes today so please bare with us; capacity is much lower than our stolen vehicles. To donate towards repairs please use this link: https://t.co/4Mqc1U5IWb

[Jane Mackay @jemackay]

This makes me really sad. @StNicksFields is a very special place full of amazing people and to see it being broken into and trashed is horrible 😢

[St Nicks #YorksGreenHeart @StNicksFields]

We were devastated to arrive at work this morning to discover St Nicks had been broken into overnight. Doris our biggest vehicle has been stolen, our smaller vehicle Edith they attempted to steal but they ran the tyres off the wheels & trashed her when they couldn't move her.
