It’s a fond farewell from the MAKEITBLUE team. We no longer have the resources to continue campaigning and we know that across the #events industry other bodies are championing #mentalhealth. Thanks to all those brilliant heroes who contributed to our work. #eventprofsuk

We’re donating this month to charity @DanceSyndromeUK, provider of inclusive dance workshops and leadership training. Our contribution will help fund DanceSyndrome’s amazing and inspiring dancers to shine at this year’s @EdFringe Festival #eventprofs #mentalhealth

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

Delighted that our latest donation to @eventwell, the #events industry’s champion of #mentalhealth and #wellbeing will contribute towards nine community and school hubs providing a gentle mental escape to support individuals’ event experience. #eventprofsuk

Hats off to our friends at @EventWellUK, for introducing and equipping Quiet Rooms at conferences, receptions, parties and exhibitions. Members of the neurodiverse community particularly appreciate these refuges from the sensory storm of hectic, noisy meetings. #eventprofsuk

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

Large #events produce the exact conditions that make neurodiverse people feel stressed and overwhelmed. In #WorldAutismAcceptanceWeek, we're reminded to plan events incorporating moments of calm and natural experiences to enhance attendee wellbeing. #eventprofsuk #wellbeing

Sometimes just managing to put one foot in front of the other is all we can do, and that’s OK. In World Mental Health Week we’re reaching out to everyone who is battling demons or facing terrible challenges right now. You are not alone. #eventprofsuk

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

In the run-up to World Mental Health Day on 10 October we’re focusing on everybody’s emotional wellbeing. Why not check in on a friend or family member you haven’t heard from for a while? Your call may be the best thing that happens to them all day #mentalhealth. #eventprofsuk

Self-care tip for World Mental Health Day on 10 October: get out in nature. Feel the ground beneath your feet, the cool air on your face and sniff the autumn leaves. Trees give off phytoncides, which protect them from disease and benefit human health when inhaled. #mentalhealth

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

Self-care tip for World Mental Health Day on 10 October: prepare a home-cooked meal from scratch and savour every mouthful. It’s not Master Chef: revel in the pure pleasure of creamy pasta, the moody bliss of a bowl of Borscht, the buttery joy of a jacket potato. #eventprofsuk

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

With World Mental Health Day on 10 October, why not indulge in some self-care by listening to your favourite song or piece of music. Our favourite? ‘Stand As One’ by @JoeBygraves https://t.co/87YeaI1oG8 written for charities supporting the mental health of #eventprofsuk

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

With World Mental Health Day on 10 October, we’re focusing on self-care for enhanced wellbeing. Today: wrap your hands around a steaming mugful of comfort and savour every drop. Better still – share a cuppa with a friend or two for some real human connection! #eventprofsuk

Eye-watering revelations in September’s issue of @StandOutmag. Only @Mattstorey can join the dots between shoplifting blueberries and pulling all-nighters in the events industry https://t.co/yOOs15Niu7 #eventprofsuk

[Alice D Cooper @AliceDCooper]

Watch the music video I directed for the track "Stand as One" by @JoeBygraves for #MakeitBlue and @BeContent_UK. It's live on @paus_tv. Written to support #NHS charities during CV19. TVM to DOP @JohnHoarePhoto & ±70 who donated their time to the project. https://t.co/h9ZyAPOZMy

[Make It Blue UK @makeitblueuk]

Huge congrats to @a_d_cooper2eg, @becontentuk and @johnhoarephoto, whose brilliant video made for MAKEITBLUE has been selected for @paus.tv film festival. Its soundtrack, Stand as One, was written and performed for us by ace singer songwriter @joebygravesmusic #eventprofsuk
