🧠💬 Men’s Mental Health Week 2025
📅 9–15 June

At Allerton Care and Support, we know that mental health matters—especially for men, who are often least likely to ask for help.
This week, we're standing with men across our communities to break the silence and encourage open conversations around stress, anxiety, depression, and wellbeing. Because talking saves lives.
➡️ 1 in 4 men will experience a mental health problem.
➡️ Su***de remains the biggest killer of men under 50.
Let’s change that—together.
💙 Whether you’re a dad, son, brother, colleague or friend, your mental health matters.
👉 Reach out. Check in. Speak up.
Together, we can build a culture where support is strength.

To every volunteer — whether you support a cause, lend a hand at events, or offer a listening ear — thank you. Your kindness and dedication are truly inspiring. 💪

Let’s celebrate the power of volunteering and the impact it has on lives every single day. 🫶

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

This June, we stand together to celebrate love, identity, and equality — and to honour the incredible contributions of the LGBTQ+ community across the UK and beyond. 🌍❤️

Pride is more than a celebration — it's a reminder of the ongoing fight for equal rights, visibility, and inclusion. It's about creating a world where everyone can live authentically and proudly, without fear or discrimination.

Let’s lift each other up, listen, learn, and continue to push for a future where everyone is seen, heard, and valued. 🏳️‍⚧️🌈

🐴 A Special Day at Glenda Spooner Farm 🐴

One of our supported people from our South West Services recently visited Glenda Spooner Farm in Somerset — a rescue and rehoming centre named after equine welfare champion Glenda Spooner.

She had a wonderful time meeting the horses and learning about their rehabilitation journeys — and was proudly awarded a horse badge, which she now wears and shows off to everyone with pride! 🎖️💜

This visit was more than just a day out — it was a reminder of the powerful bond between humans and animals, and how meaningful, inclusive experiences can leave a lasting impact.

✨ Adventure in the Unexpected! ✨

Some of our supported people from our South West services recently had an unforgettable day at Wake The Tiger in Bristol 🌈🧩

They explored over 40 immersive environments — from glowing psilocybin mushrooms and psychedelic forests to secret doors and mind-bending puzzles. 🌿🔮✨

It was a day full of wonder, curiosity, creativity, and connection — sparking both smiles and conversation. Everyone left feeling inspired… and eager to go back!

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn;
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
We will remember them.

Join Allerton and the rest of the UK at 11am to fall to a 2 minute silence of remembrance.

The two-minute silence is a time to reflect on and commemorate the service and sacrifices of those who have served in the military for the United Kingdom. The 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month marks the time when the last battle of World War I ended in 1918
