So delighted to welcome back @drkathrynmannix to the #MentalWealthFestival. Kathryn has been one of our most amazing guests and she’s one of today’s great thinkers. Come join us!!

Let’s try to remember this, please.
It’s been 63 years since suicide was decriminalised in the UK. But so many of us still use the term ‘commit suicide’.
Why does it matter? Language that links suicide and crime can increase stigma and prevent people struggling with suicidal thoughts from speaking out.
If we choose language like ‘died by suicide’ or ‘took their own life’ we allow space for open conversations and compassion. Let’s choose our words carefully.
#WorldSuicidePreventionDay

One of the highlights of @citylit year. Please come and join us!
Our first events for the Mental Wealth Festival are live!
As 2024 marks the 10 years of the Festival, we've invited lots of old friends back to speak, as well as some new faces...
Make sure you grab tickets nice and early to not miss out on any spots!

This is very moving, irrespective of your politics.
As part of #pridemonth please take a few moments to read my thoughts.
"Being your true self, in a safe environment, takes so much pressure off an individual to constantly check yourself and removes another layer of pressure to how you perform," says @MarkMalcomson, principal and CEO of @citylit. #PrideMonth

What a pleasure to interview @DrRosena today. Such an inspiring and passionate advocate for mental health and wellbeing.
Brilliant to be a keynote speaker at the @watercoolerevnt in the ExCeL London today, for a discussion on mental health in Government and the NHS.
Rather than railing against a "sick note" culture, we must be encouraging more openness and understanding around mental health.
Great that we had our friends from @uk_beyondwords at @citylit yesterday. Amazing work being done together!
🥰 Thank you to everyone who came to our Book Club Training @citylit yesterday, especially our fantastic co-trainers! We had a wonderful afternoon and are looking forward to seeing your new Book Clubs 👀 Missed this session? More here 👉 bit.ly/3wjLCLT
