Human rights are about real change in the support and services people receive. That's why we welcome the recommendations of @taskforcescot, which would bring necessary improvement to mental health services for Scotland's children and young people. bit.ly/2JuleCL

1 in 4 mums suffer from a maternal mental health issue - most in silence due to stigma. So our Antenatal Teacher Val Willcox is shouting about #MaternalMentalHealth this week, and YOU can join us. Share your own #ShoutieSelfie & help spread this message. #MaternalMentalHealthWeek

Really inspiring stuff from @venturetrust about how they are using the outdoors as a therapeutic environment to help the mental wellbeing of the people they work with.
Bothy of Care – exploring @venturetrust experiences of reaching disengaged individuals via outdoor-based personal development work in therapeutic environments. Looking forward to presenting session today to @scotgov/@scotgovhealth staff as part of House of Care Principles.

Mental health in education is a key priority for the @taskforcescot. Education runs through all of our workstreams - from prevention through to early and more intensive intervention in early years up to age 25.
83% of school staff have seen a rise in student mental health problems in two years, according to new study. This is one of many reasons why we’ve been campaigning to make mental health a priority in our schools ow.ly/Ef2v50qD2mh
