Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay.   We can all help to prevent suicide by starting the conversation and creating a culture of openness, understanding and support.   Remember, it is not always obvious when somebody needs help.

Never want to be in a position to do this, but have no choice!Well @BootsUK , absolutely appalling service from yourselves, more than happy to take peoples money but not deliver??

@N_AmbDisability Such sad news 💙

It is with profound sadness we share news of the passing of our Deputy Chair, Tom Heywood, YAS. Tom was a founder of NADN & chaired the YAS network. He leaves a lasting legacy across the sector, improving the lives of staff, he will be deeply missed, Rest in Power dear friend 💜

Check out the O-mazed face on our Head Of Charity, Zoe, when she joined @NHSCharities for the big fundraising total reveal from @OmazeUK 😲😵‍💫😅 How fantastic!
