Black History Month matters because Black history is part of British and world history.

It is a time to recognise the achievements, struggles and contributions of Black people. 🙌🏼🙌🏽🙏🏼🙏🏽

Celebrating Black history does not take anything away from anyone else. 😊

It helps us learn the full story, understand different experiences and appreciate the people who have helped shape our communities.

We should not feel threatened by Black History Month. 🙄

Learning about other people’s history is not an attack. 🧐

It is a chance to show respect, build understanding and help create a fairer future for everyone.😊😊😊

Today Ali and myself (Andy) presented on the work of the St Helens Together Against Stigma group at the GP PLT event. The event was an opportunity to talk about the effect of drug and alcohol stigma with health professionals, and other services working with people, at the Saints stadium.
There were also great presentations on smoking cessation, and other areas around public health.
Here's Ali and Martine ensuring the great work we do is shared at the marketing stall event also.
