So let’s begin to show compassion for those people who might be suffering. Let us stop looking how to punish, let us look at ways to nourish those dreams, desires and ambitions.

[Colm Healy @ColmHealy11]

The men I met had dreams, desires and ambitions. They had talents that left me in jealous. They had compassion that helped me so much, they saw my pain, because they recognised it.

[Colm Healy @ColmHealy11]

In three weeks, 3 men in their 30’s have died. 6 years ago, I was in prison and neighbours of these 3 men. They had many things common, no.1 was their endless potential and intelligence, that was robbed from them by their demon addictions.

Thank you to everyone who brought their unique experiences, open minds and ears to yesterday's first #WisdomfromtheSystem call. We are working hard to organise a follow-up, but in the meantime please share your Wisdom through the website https://t.co/NiBCnawnk9

"The instant that you say ‘a woman with a drug problem’, a ‘man with a mental health problem’ you have failed. You have become part of a systemic problem" An extract from @patmcardle51's latest blog https://t.co/ea7YKZh7fG #PTS #SystemsChange

Fancy exploring the meaning of life on a foggy Thursday morning? Check out @MaffPotts from @Camerados_org fantastically funny, human (and a little bit shit) speech from the Meaning Conference. Bloody brilliant 👌

Have you responded to this year's #FrontineWorkerSurvey2019?

The Frontline Network is only as strong as the frontline workers that make it, so the more people that take part, the stronger we become.

Why do those experiencing poverty show reduced access to psychological therapy despite its availability? Maybe because “interventions who have been developed by white middle class individuals do not address the specific needs of those from deprived backgrounds” #GTiCP2019
