APPEAL | A number of officers have been injured, cars set alight & a shop broken into & looted in Southport this evening. This is completely unacceptable. We're gathering evidence & those responsible will be brought to justice. If you have footage of those involved DM Merseyside Police Contact Centre

There's so much still to do to tackle disparities in mental health care for Black people. But yesterday's Black Mental Health Manifesto launch event felt like a memorable step in the right direction. Read about the calls within the manifesto here 👉 bmhwa.co.uk

Tell me again how the outrage against the murder of three young girls would lead you to loot a Lush store? Square this tawdry circle for me, because it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. For fuck’s sake.

🧵 THREAD (1/5) Lately, we've seen opinion pieces in national newspapers that criticise mental health awareness. We've also noticed the dismissal of so-called "liberal" approaches to supporting people severely affected by mental illness to live and thrive in their communities.

While it's true that there are pressing issues to address - like ensuring timely and appropriate care in the right setting - these articles often spread misinformation and rely on sweeping generalisations. (2/5)

Ironically, these critiques only highlight the urgent need for greater awareness and understanding of mental illness - not less. (4/5)

A crucial step forward is to truly listen to the lived experiences of those deeply affected by mental illness, as well as their loved ones. Let's focus on building a more informed, compassionate society. (5/5)

Let’s support people’s goals/needs. Neither write them off or diminish their illness. Employers may reject them based on diagnosis, even though they want to work and have the necessary support. Those who can’t work shouldn’t be forced to or be sanctioned. 1 size doesn’t fit all

More people are talking about mental health. But awareness and understanding about mental illness is still so far behind. #LetsRethink
