1st comic is a cartoon version of me. I’m saying “I don't stutter due to being nervous or anxious. Stuttering is neurological, NOT psychological.” 2nd comic is a cartoon version of me. I’m wearing a Batman shirt. I’m saying: All of us stutter differently. When a person who stutters says "Batman," it might come out like "Buh - buh - buh - Batman (a repetition) or "...Batman" (a silent block before the word comes out)." 3rd comic is a cartoon version of Nina G Comedian. She’s saying: "Please be patient with me when I'm speaking. Don't interrupt me or make hand gestures to rush me. I know what to say, but it just takes a bit more time to say it." 4th comic is a cartoon version of Grant Meredith. He’s saying: "Not all people who stutter want to be fluent. Some of us prefer to stutter with pride."
National #Stuttering Acceptance Week is May 12-18 🗣️

This image shows an image of sand with the text “78% of stalking victims reported experiencing symptoms consistent with PTSD, but only 24% were assessed for PTSD by their healthcare practitioner”
Our #NSAW2019 research found that almost all victims of stalking experience symptoms consistent with PTSD.
For #NSAW2025, we are calling on NHS Integrated Care Boards to commission specialist training and guidance on identifying and responding to stalking victims 🤝

Stalking leaves victims with long-lasting psychological impacts that can manifest as physical symptoms. The root cause of these feelings must be understood and addressed to ensure effects are reduced. www.actionagainststalking.org/

With others I am campaigning for change
A flip from exclusion zones for convicted offenders that limit victims’ liberty, to inclusion zones requiring those convicted of the most serious crimes to live within specific geographic zones

Paladin has been working with medical students to raise awareness around stalking and to inform them of how they can best help their future patients, who may be victims of stalking themselves, get the best support.
#NSAW2025 #SpotTheSigns #SpottingStalking #RecogniseRespondRefer
Stalking remains invisible in the health sector, even though healthcare professionals are at a higher risk than the general population.
We urge the government to support our amendments to the Employments Rights Bill, to ensure all employees are safe from gender-based violence at work.

Every missed opportunity puts lives at risk.

All healthcare professionals have the right to be safe at work.
❗This #NSAW2025, we are calling for the health sector to develop internal stalking policies and protocols that address the needs of employees experiencing stalking, in consultation with specialist stalking services❗
