The heatwave continues... it's set to be extremely hot this week - potentially reaching 37 degrees in some places! 🥵☀️

Some medications, including certain antipsychotics, anti-depressants, mood stabilisers, and ADHD medications can increase your sensitivity to heat and make it more difficult for your body to regulate temperature.

This is your reminder to read your medication leaflets to be aware of any side effects. Make sure to stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay safe! 😎

Please share this to help spread the word.

Autistic Pride Day is all about celebrating and embracing autistic individuals and pushing for greater acceptance and understanding in the wider community 🌻

Autistic individuals are more likely to experience a mental health condition and face a significantly higher risk of attempting su***de compared to non-autistic people. This is often due to factors such as barriers to accessing appropriate support, misdiagnosis, stigma, and differences in how they experience and interact with the world.

By fostering greater understanding of autism and embracing neurodiversity, we can help to create a more inclusive environment, where autistic individuals feel seen, supported, and less alone.

For anyone who may be struggling with their mental health, including those with autism or other neurodivergence, you are not alone 🫂

It’s Loneliness Awareness Week, and this year’s theme is “Giving Loneliness a Voice.” 🗣️

Loneliness is something we can all experience at different points in our lives and that is normal. By talking about it more openly, we can start to break the stigma and remind each other that no one is truly alone in feeling this way 🫶

Loneliness and mental health often go hand in hand, creating a cycle that can be hard to break. That’s why this week is incredibly important as they provide space for understanding, support, and connection ❤️

We are proud to support Marmalade Trust's Loneliness Awareness Week 2026 👏

The launch of the next round of SANE’s Creative Awards Scheme is around the corner...

This week we are highlighting a stunning piece by Olivia B, titled ‘Fleeting Flowers’, for our Artwork of the Week.

She told SANE: “My work centres around the fundamental dialogue between line, form, and colour, and echoes the variety of interpretations I produce from my surrounding environment. I balance the different vibrations and tensions between these three elements to produce a harmonious, balanced image. I allow my intuition and subconscious to play an important role in my image making process.”❤️

Purchase your own print of ‘Fleeting Flowers’ by tapping the link in the post or head to our shop via the link in our bio - 25% of profits go directly to the artist.

NHS workforce plan ‘must be paused’ over concerns it fails to safely grow staff numbers and over-relies on AI, say health unions and professional bodies
