You don’t have to be loving the sunshine. You don’t have to be making core memories. And you definitely don’t have to be “fine.”

You don’t need a big reason. Just a small step.
Reach out. We’ll walk with you from there.

Right now, everything feels loud.
The pressure to be outdoors, social, productive, sun-soaked and smiling.
But healing doesn’t have a season. And your peace doesn’t need to perform.

Take a breath.
It’s okay to rest.
You don’t need to match the weather to feel like you’re doing life right.

We're here if you need us.

Two years ago, he left the Glastonbury stage mid-set, overwhelmed and openly struggling with his mental health.

This weekend? Lewis Capaldi came back. No hype. No warning. Just heart.

And when he launched into his brand new track “Survive,” it wasn’t just a comeback,it was a message.

“I swear to God I’ll survive, if it kills me to.”
It’s raw. It’s real. And it matters—because for anyone who’s ever battled through the fog, that lyric lands hard.

This wasn’t about perfection. It was about courage. About owning your pace. About finishing what life once interrupted.

If you’re in a space where the smallest steps feel like survival—please know, you're not alone.

We’re here. Whenever you’re ready.

My new song ‘Survive’ is out now: http://lewiscapaldi.lnk.to/Survive Follow Lewis Capaldi for moreInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lewiscapaldi/Facebook...

You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support.

Sometimes it’s not a breakdown.
Sometimes it’s not rock bottom.
Sometimes it’s just… too much.

Too many tabs open in your brain.
Too many “I’m fine” replies.
Too many days where you feel like you’re coping, but only just.

Mental health isn’t a switch. It’s a spectrum.
And asking for help isn’t a dramatic act, it’s a wise one. A brave one.

4 out of 5 are doing okay.
It’s the fifth we need to talk about.

They might be quieter than usual. Cancelled plans a few too many times. Or just not quite themselves lately.

The other four? You could be the difference.
You don’t need to be a therapist. You just need to notice.
Reach out. Check in. Stay close.

And if it feels like they need more than you can give, we’re here.
Encourage them to get in touch with TalkPlus.

People don’t always raise their hand when they’re struggling.

Sometimes it’s a throwaway comment.
A silence that lasts a bit too long.
A “nah, I’m all good” that doesn’t quite land.

If you’ve got five mates,
statistically, one of them will face a mental health challenge.

Be the mate who spots it.
Be the mate who checks in.
Be the one who helps.

You don’t need to be stress-free to do well in your A-Levels.
You just need to not let stress drive the bus.

Stress isn’t the enemy. In small doses, it’s motivation. But left unchecked, it turns into the annoying backseat driver that makes you question everything.

So here’s the behavioural trick:
👉 Don’t try to eliminate stress. Manage your response to it.
Revision works better in short bursts. Sleep works better than all-nighters. And nobody ever remembered more by panicking more.

At TalkPlus, we don’t do platitudes, we do practical help. Free, confidential, and actually helpful.

📚 A-Level pressure is real. So is support.

1 in 5 people struggle with their mental health.
But this campaign isn’t just for them.
It’s for the four people who know them.
Who see the missed calls, the silence, the “I’m fine” texts.
You don’t need the perfect words.
You just need to notice.
You just need to ask.

This week, we’re talking to you.
