✨Monday Mention✨

Meet the brilliant Hadley!!

Hadley told us his story to encourage other young people to get into volunteering, and explained how he had equally benefitted from volunteering as well as being the one receiving support.

Hadley said ⬇
"Seeking peer support and clinical help shifted my mindset entirely, it’s not about trying to completely get over a traumatic life event or just wishing the intrusive thoughts would stop but instead learning to live with coping strategies that suited me personally which make day to day life a little bit easier".

🌍💚 World Mental Health Day 2026 💚🌍

This year's theme,"Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change," reminds us of something simple but powerful: when people are truly listened to, positive change can happen.

At Linking Hope, lived experience is at the heart of everything we do. We know that those who have faced mental health challenges often have the greatest insight into what support, understanding, and recovery can look like.

Today is a reminder to: 💜 Listen without judgement
💜 Create space for honest conversations
💜 Value and amplify lived experience
💜 Challenge stigma surrounding mental health
💜 Help people feel heard, understood, and supported

Every story matters. Every voice matters. And by listening to one another, we can build stronger, more compassionate communities where nobody feels alone.

If someone shares their story with you today, take the time to listen. It could make more of a difference than you realise.

💜 Did you know?

Adults living in the most deprived communities are 64% more likely to experience a common mental health condition than those living in the least deprived areas.

Mental health is about more than individual circumstances. Factors such as financial hardship, unemployment, poor housing, and social isolation can all have a significant impact on wellbeing.

At Linking Hope, we believe everyone deserves access to support, connection, and hope, regardless of their background or postcode. By raising awareness and building stronger communities, we can help ensure that nobody faces life's challenges alone.

💙 Together, we can tackle inequality, reduce stigma, and create communities where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

💜 Did you know?

People experiencing problem debt are more than three times as likely to have attempted su***de as those without problem debt.

Financial difficulties can affect so much more than our bank balance. They can impact mental health, relationships, confidence, and overall wellbeing.

There are many organisations in and around Derby and Derbyshire that can support:

🔵 Citizen's Advice - https://www.citizensadvicederbyshiredistricts.org.uk/our-services/money-advice/
🔵Derby City Mission - https://www.derbycitymission.org.uk/jubileeclinics
🔵 Direct Help and Advice - https://dhadvice.org/

If you're struggling, please remember that you don't have to face things alone. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength.

💙 Together, we can break down stigma, start important conversations, and help people access the support they need.
