Hey all :wave:

As many of you know, Thursday 4th February is Time to Talk Day hosted by Time To Change. Time To Change is a campaign against the stigma around mental health in society. As you can imagine, we are well behind this notion so we're putting on a daytime chat to discuss the subject. This will be a space to talk about how mental health is seen by society and also to share some experiences around it. :)

The chat will be held between 12pm and 1pm in the workshop room. We'll be discussing questions like "what are some of the unhelpful things people say about mental health?"and a few others, so there will be a bit of structure.

In addition, pledges are also being made personally by people as well as by corporations and celebrities to tackle the issue. You can check them out and make your own pledge here.

Hope to see you there! :thumb:

    Aaah no! That's rubbish (and ironic). Sorry we missed you, but you were here in spirit at least. :P There will be a couple of follow-up threads popping up in the next few days, so feel free to keep an eye out for those. :yes:
