We were SO honoured to host a Q&A panel to 360 nursing students at on Friday!
The panel featured who features in ‘Man Down’ and who talks about his experiences of low mood & suic*dal thoughts - he talks about coping mechanisms and recovery and is evidence of how people’s lives can change.
who lost his beloved brother after a su***de attempt, he spoke about grief, coping and the quality of care they experienced as family within various care settings & last but by no means least - who is a mental health advocate and who alongside her sister work hard to support their dad in his recovery from psychosis & symptoms of bipolar/polar disorder. Imaarl spoke openly about institutional racism, health inequalities and the negative experiences faced in advocacy for her dad.
Such a meaningful & inspirational panel of people. This type of discourse leads to change.
UWE nursing students you were amazing!!
