Autumn reminds us that change is inevitable. For some change brings fear, that we go to extreme lengths to avoid it. Autumn shows us that rather than shunning change, nature achieves this transition effortlessly.

We don’t always know what someone is carrying and sometimes the smallest message or call can mean the most.

A simple “How are you, really?” can open the door to connection and support.

Save this post as a reminder, or share it with someone who might need these gentle words today. 💙

It is such a beautiful moment, when a client is able to breathe, and say to self “it’s over now”. Beautifully walking away from therapy, knowing safety exists.

The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm. Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate - even if they are set to silent.

The Emergency Alerts system is used to warn if there’s a danger to life nearby, including extreme weather. Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency.

If you are affected by domestic abuse and have a hidden mobile phone from your abuser, you may not wish the sound of the alert to draw attention to your phone. You can turn off your phone before this time or adjust your phone settings to opt out. Full instructions telling you how to opt out are available at https://www.gov.uk/alerts/opting-out.

If domestic abuse is happening to you, it's important to tell someone and remember you are not alone. COMPASS is the domestic abuse helpline for Essex, and you can call them on 0330 333 7 444 or visit their website.
