Workplace wellbeing starts with people!

Hear from Julie Marks, our Office Manager, as she shares her perspective on what workplace wellbeing really means and why it matters.

From creating a supportive environment to encouraging open conversations, small changes can make a big difference.

Let’s keep building workplaces where everyone feels valued, heard, and supported 💙

There’s a lot of misunderstanding about BPD.

✨ People with BPD can have healthy, loving relationships
✨ Emotions may be intense—but so is empathy and connection
✨ With support, things can improve

Let’s challenge stigma and choose understanding.

You don’t have to earn rest.

You don’t need to be “productive enough,” tired enough, or overwhelmed enough to deserve a break. Rest is a basic need, not a reward.

Taking time to pause, recharge and look after your mental health is always valid.

Social anxiety is more than just shyness.

It can feel overwhelming, isolating, and hard to explain, but you are not alone.

With the right support, understanding, and small steps forward, things can get easier.

Let’s keep talking, keep learning, and keep supporting each other.

The Lived Experience Network is a community led by people who have accessed mental health services, bringing together diverse voices to improve support and influence the future of care.

People with lived experience lead change, by sharing insight, challenging assumptions, and shaping better mental health services.

The Lived Experience Network celebrates that leadership and creates space for it to grow.

Your voice matters. Your experience matters.

The Lived Experience Network brings together people who have their own experience of mental distress to shape services, share insight, and help drive meaningful change.

By joining the network, you can:

o Make decisions regarding service models, policies and practice

o Access training a development opportunity to develop your practise as a lived experience leader

o Access paid and unpaid opportunities

o Network at online and in-person events

If you want to influence decisions, connect with others, and help build a more compassionate mental health system, we’d love you to join our thriving community!

Whether you’re new to lived experience leadership and involvement or already shaping the conversation, there’s are opportunities and a place for you in the network. Find out more & sign up: https://lnkd.in/ejdUTG-K

Your health matters — in every way 💚

This World Health Day, we’re reminding you that health isn’t just physical, your mental wellbeing is just as important.

Take a moment today to check in with yourself. Rest when you need to, reach out if things feel heavy, and remember that looking after your mind is part of looking after your whole self.

Small steps still count.

April is Autism Acceptance Month 💙

This month is about more than awareness, it’s about listening, learning, and truly accepting autistic people for who they are.

Autism is not something to be “fixed” it’s a different way of experiencing and understanding the world. Every autistic person’s journey is unique, and every voice deserves to be heard, respected, and valued.

Let’s move beyond awareness and create spaces where people feel safe to be themselves, without judgement, pressure, or expectation.

Acceptance starts with understanding.

Wishing you a gentle and peaceful Easter 💛

Easter can be a time of joy, rest, and connection, but we know it can also feel different for everyone. Whether you’re celebrating, spending time with loved ones, or simply taking a quiet moment for yourself, however today looks for you is enough.

Take this as a reminder to be kind to yourself, slow down where you can, and check in with your wellbeing.

You’re not alone today or any day.

From feeling overwhelmed to changes in mood and mindset, stress affects us all differently, but one thing is clear: we don’t have to face it alone.
