Happy International Men’s Day! 🎉

Today we are celebrating all the amazing men in our lives.

The teachers, the leaders, the ones who know who they are and the ones still figuring it out, the Dads on the school run, the Dads at work, the ones who are there when we need them, the ones who make us laugh and smile, the ones who keep the infrastructure running while we are fast asleep.

From early childhood boys are less likely to receive affection and care than girls.
Boys are often taught to ‘man up’ and hide their feelings.

Research has found that boys can connect emotionally with others at a very deep level, we just have to make it safe for them to do so.

As adults, men are more likely to hide their mental health struggles, and men are three times more likely to take their own lives.

Today reach out to a man you care about and let him know what you appreciate about him, let him know you are there for him if he ever needs to talk 💜

We‘re here to help you make your life and the lives of those around you a happier, kinder place to be. 🌈

This week is National Safeguarding Adults Week!

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council is supporting National Safeguarding Adults Week with the Teeswide Safeguarding Adults Board and partner organisations acrossTeesside. https://www.tsab.org.uk/

Led by national charity the Ann Craft Trust, the campaign is a time for organisations to come together to raise awareness of important safeguarding issues.

Safeguarding means protecting an adult’s right to live in safety, free from abuse and neglect. Adult abuse can happen to anyone who is over 18.

If you have concerns for an adult, Say Something. You can contact your local adult social care team on the numbers shown on the poster. If you require other ways to report abuse, please visit https://www.tsab.org.uk/report-abuse/

The role of TSAB is to safeguard and promote the well-being and independence of adults at risk of abuse or neglect. If you would like to have your say about the future priorities for adult safeguarding, please take a few minutes to complete their annual survey to share your views. https://www.tsab.org.uk/campaigns-and-initiatives/annual-survey-2025-2026/
