Food bank donations in time for Christmas from the South Tyneside Team

South Tyneside branch have collected for their local food bank, Hospitality and Hope and today they came to pick up the wonderful donations from local businesses, the carers and Branch Team.

Diane from the charity explained that they have seen a huge increase in those who need to receive donations and I am more than sure you will all agree that it is hard to comprehend that in this day and age we are seeing the vast increase.

No one should be in a situation where they can’t access food for themselves and loved ones. We all hope that this donation goes a little way to support over the festive period and the high demand.

“No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted”

A personal thank you to all those in South Tyneside for supporting our Living Made Easier Assessor for arranging collection.

It’s , and time for a 〰️ shout out to our Cera Men employee resource group members sporting their new facial hair! Sponsorship link: https://bit.ly/4hMHzeA

But quite rightly, this month the conversation goes deeper than a great 'tache - Movember is about men’s health, both physical and mental.

👨For too long, men have felt pressure to be stoic and self-reliant. However, tragically, men account for 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK, often because stigma prevents them from speaking up or seeking help early.

Our blog, The Silent Struggle: Addressing Men's Mental Health, shines a light on this crisis and offers tangible ways we can all help break the silence.

The blog touches on:
☠️ Toxic masculinity's toll: The pressure to "man up" and suppress emotion leads to internal struggles like masked depression and substance abuse.

💪A sign of strength: Seeking help is the bravest act of self-care a man can take.

👨‍❤️‍👨How you can help: Simple steps like checking in with a friend and creating safe spaces for conversations can save lives.

Let’s change the narrative this Movember. 👉 Read The Silent Struggle https://bit.ly/44jRYJH
