"He Died Waiting: Learning the lessons - a bereaved mother's view of mental health services"
Book launch 11th Feb 5pm: virtualopenday.essex.ac.uk/a…
Without working through past & current failings on a systemic & individual level, how is improving quality of care a possibility?
The RUMS Review, UCL medical school's student magazine, have just released the Neuroscience Edition. We have written a blog post, picking out some articles related to psychiatry, but the whole magazine is well worth a read!

@lovebillybragg of @MHtimeforAction shares her story & encourages others to seek help
Conclusions
1. "you need the services there to help people that are really struggling"
2. need a caring society where we look after each other

The lockdown has seen a sharp rise in people drinking too much.
In June, nearly 8.5 million people in England were consuming "high risk" levels of alcohol, nearly double the number in February.
There are fears that problem drinkers can't get the help they need.

Had an amazing time, met some wonderful people and learnt a lot about a great speciality on this scheme. When I applied I never thought I'd get a place as my interest in psychiatry was so new. If in doubt, definitely apply! #choosepsychiatry
