🔊 1 in 4 young people are experiencing mental challenges each week. Let that sink in.

Our latest Young People's Programmes impact report shows that early, preventative support can change outcomes and lives. In schools, communities and families, our programmes are building skills and support systems that last beyond the sessions.

We've reached 1,510 young people and trained 88 staff across Scotland and we know there's much more to do.

You can get involved. Head to the comments to read more about our Young People's Programmes and its newest impact report 🔗

Michelle sensed something wasn’t right early on, but kept going anyway. Then burnout happened.

People may rely on you. You may worry that taking time to rest will lead to consequences: finances, stigma and even more uncertainty.

Does this feel familiar? You don't have to figure it all out alone. Reach out to the people you know and love, speak to your GP or get in touch with us.

🐾 It's National Pet Day, but we don't need an excuse to share pictures of our extended family!

They’re not on the team on paper, but they’re our secret advantage across Scotland: small (mostly furry) agents keeping our staff grounded, active and smiling.

What they offer may seem small, but it carries into the support we give others, often in ways we don’t realise 🐶

"Even when I wasn’t working, I couldn’t switch off. I was so tired I couldn’t rest."

We don’t always call it stress, but we feel it in our bodies. There's exhaustion, lack of focus and more.

Stress, pressure and constant push without space to recover or reset build over time and can lead to distress.

Finding small actions that work for you can help you .

Nine legends, good weather & abseiling 100ft off the world's first & only rotating boat lift 🌞

Yes, it's got to be the Falkirk Wheel Abseil! Our amazing Changemakers raised over £3,600 (and still counting!) in this thrilling challenge and ensured more people have access to the support they need and when they need it.

Thank you to everyone for making the day so special 💙 You could be next! We have a packed agenda of fundraising challenges this year. Find out more in the comments 🔗

Communication and connection look different for everyone.

That’s where neurodivergent people get left out, judged against a ‘one right way’.

On , prioritise inclusion and acceptance + ask questions & learn from autistic and neurodivergent people.

Small actions can make a big impact. Such as with stress: it doesn't need a big solution, but it will respond to small & repeated actions.

It's been one week since we launched our Manifesto to Put Kids First! 🚩

Unveiled at Edinburgh's Riddles Court, partners & politicians learned more about our bold new Manifesto and pledged their support to Put Kids First.

What are we calling for?
1️⃣ Protect childhood: Ban social media for under 16's
2️⃣ Stop the distractions: Ban mobile phones during the school day
3️⃣ Give schools the tools: Mandatory mental health training for all school staff
4️⃣ Enhance support for all: Ringfence funding for preventative community mental health services
5️⃣ Build hope: A job, training or educational place for every young person through a Young Person's guarantee programme.

🔗 Read our round-up in the comments and sign the pledge.

Bipolar is highly stigmatised and misunderstood.

For and forever, we can change that by understanding bipolar together. And often, that can start with our actions and language.

It's important that the Out Of Sight Out Of Mind Exhibition continues 🎨

The exhibition has been running every October for 13 years, enabling hundreds of people with mental health issues to have their voices heard using art. It's the biggest of its kind and it's all organised by people with lived experience.

We love Out of Sight Out of Mind! Many supported through our Edinburgh services at Stafford Centre have their incredible art exhibited. Some got to view their artwork at the event in October 2025.

🔗 The exhibtion needs funding to continue in 2026. The CAPS Independent Advocacy team have started a GoFundMe to ensure this happens. You can contribute or share through the link in the comments.
