At #PeerFest18 tomorrow we'll be celebrating the power and diversity of peer support. But what is peer support? Our video can help explain.

#WorldMentalHealthDay2018 We must get young people the support they need at school and beyond. I was diagnosed with #bipolar disorder at 16 I had #depression at 15 I was hospitalised But I had support from positive adults- family and teachers. Mental health must be a priority.

This #WorldMentalHealthDay a shout out to @barnetvolunteer for highlighting @MindinBarnet volunteering opportunities in advocacy and admin support roles. More info here bit.ly/2OiccOH

Too many people still feel helpless when it comes to supporting someone with a mental health problem. But it doesn't have to be that way - small gestures really can make a huge difference.

We're helping to make this the biggest Big Mental Health Survey yet. Please share and help people have their say. twitter.com/MindCharity/st…

"If you know someone with depression, support and love them even if they don’t seem like the person you used to know. They didn’t choose depression and they need you to be there for them." Karen's blog: bit.ly/2IV2CJW

This #PrideMonth, it's important to remember that LGBTQ people are at higher risk of mental health problems than the general population and often experience stigma as a result. Their stories: bit.ly/2KLXzk4

Fantastic news! We're a huge step closer to reducing the use of dangerous restraint in mental health hospitals. #SenisLaw Thank you to Seni's family and all the organisations involved, to @SteveReedMP for spearheading this Bill, and to all our campaigners for getting behind it. twitter.com/HouseofCommons…

The NHS has largely given me excellent #mentalhealth care throughout my life so far. Nothing is perfect and change is still needed re funding. Members of my family and my fiance work in it too so I know a lot about it and am grateful for it! 70 years! #HappyBirthdayNHS
