Anti-Bullying Week

Hey Community,
We’re excited to let you know that Anti-Bullying Week is taking place from Monday 10th November - Friday 14th November, and this year’s theme is “Power for Good”.
This theme is all about recognising that each of us have the ability to take positive action and to make a real difference when it comes to bullying.
Here at The Mix, we believe that young people hold incredible power - your voice, your kindness, and the support you give to others all play a huge part in creating safer and kinder spaces. Whether it’s standing up for someone who’s being bullied, reaching out to a friend who’s hurting, or simply choosing kindness every day, these things matter more than you know.
Odd Socks Day – Monday 10th November
To kick off Anti-Bullying Week, we’re celebrating Odd Socks Day! We want to encourage you to wear a pair of odd socks (the whackier the better!), to celebrate what makes each of us unique. If you feel comfortable, feel free to post a picture of your socks down below (you don’t have to be wearing them!), or simply let us know what designs you’ve chosen.
And we’d love to hear from you - What’s one thing about yourself that you’re proud of?
Celebrating our differences is a huge part of Power for Good, because being different is powerful, being unique is powerful, and being kind is powerful.
A few things to think about during Anti-Bullying Week:
Together, we can use our Power For Good to end bullying for good. Let’s make this week count!

A few things to think about during Anti-Bullying Week:
- Speak out when you see bullying, whether it’s face-to-face or online. Silence lets it grow.
- Support someone who needs it, even just listening or offering them a space to talk makes a big difference.
- Choose kindness everyday, not just Anti-Bullying Week.
- Share your odd socks, your story, and your voice. And show the world how you use your own Power for Good.

One thing I am proud of myself for is persevering through my family not being the most understanding of certain things throughout my life, and that it is slowly getting better even if it is not perfect. If you told Leyla of every 2 years ago she was living her current life, she would have said it was impossible!
Thats motivating @Leyla , I kinda needed that
One thing i am proud of myself is having the ability to keep on keeping on despite the challenges life often throws your way! Learning the right techniques is key- from mindfulness (if not able to go out) to long walks (if i am!),it's about learning what works for you!
