🙏👏🧠So proud and honoured to be the Chair of The British Psychological Society: London & Home Counties Branch and part of this amazing team.

🙏🙏🙏Thank you!🙏🙏🙏
📣🙏This week, as we mark 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀’ 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸, I feel moved to write to you not just as Chair of the BPS London and Home Counties Branch, but as a fellow psychologist who sees and values the quiet strength of collective contribution.
Our branch, and the work we do together, wouldn’t exist without people like you, individuals who choose to show up, to offer time, energy, compassion, and vision. Some of you do this publicly, others behind the scenes.
𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀.
Each conversation you spark, each idea you bring forward, each hour you dedicate, it helps shape not only our profession, but the future of psychological wellbeing in our communities.
Volunteering isn’t always glamorous. It often requires patience, flexibility, and emotional labour. That’s why I want to say something simple and sincere:
𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝗜 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝗜 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.
𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 for your time, your voice, and your care.
𝗪𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝗪𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂.
Whether you’ve been involved for years or have just started giving back in small ways, your actions carry real weight. And as Chair, I am honoured to be part of this journey with you.
