Being a decent role model doesn't mean being perfect.

It's standing up for the right thing, even if that means having some awkward conversations with your mates.

Be the reason someone feels respected, valued and safe.

Help stop sexual violence before it starts.

The days are getting shorter and the weather’s getting colder. This can have an effect on your mental health so here are a few ways that might help to make these colder, darker nights easier.

Getting some sunlight can help your immune system and improve your mood. You could go for a walk, stand on the doorstep with a hot drink or even sit by the window.

Getting wrapped up and going for a walk in nature can also make you feel more grounded. Gentle exercise can help combat the effects of the season.

Creating a cozy routine with your favourite cozy clothes, candles and hot drinks can be relaxing and signal to your body that it’s time to rest.

Remember healing takes time, it’s okay to slow down.

If you are struggling with the season, you can find out more on the NHS website:

SARCS (Sexual Assault Response Coordination Service) is a dedicated NHS Scotland service which can offer healthcare and support in the days after an assault. It offers a self-referral service, meaning that anyone aged 16 or over can access healthcare and request a forensic medical examination in the days following an assault, without first having to make a report to the police.

The healthcare staff are there to help provide any medical, emotional or practical support you might need. The person you speak to will explain the options available to you. You will be supported to help find the right option for you.

To find out more please check out the SARCS website at nhsinform.scot/SARCS.

We exist to provide space for survivors’ stories to be held and heard. Part of this is in providing safe, respectful therapeutic spaces for survivors to tell their stories in their own words and at their own pace. Here’s a quote from a survivor who accessed support from our service.

We are here to believe you, to listen to you and to support you. 💜🌿✨

Day 6 of Week. People in believe in equality. Anyone can experience poor health, but poverty and poor are closely intertwined.

People in poverty are at higher risk of mental health problems, including depression and anxiety. Mental health problems can make it harder to escape poverty. For example, they can affect people’s ability to work, or continue in education or training.

We know that addressing inequality is crucial for poverty reduction in Scotland – and also for improving our nation’s mental health.

Together, we can boost incomes and security for people with mental health problems, and ensure that the services they need are available locally, and properly funded.

Together we can invest in a Scotland that provides real support to people with mental health problems. Together we can .
