#SAFAPLACE18 @safaplace Lovely to hear the idea that the school’s effective peer mentoring links so securely with pastoral care that no child/young person carries the burden of another’s suicidal thoughts.
#SAFAPLACE18 the anger & upset we are feeling reminds me of Colin Murray Parkes ‘The pain of grief is just as much a part of life as the joy of love; it is, perhaps, the price we pay for love, the cost of commitment.’
#SAFAPLACE18 sitting next to a twitter hero @mellojonny and tweeting @ him is the way to spend a Saturday morning whilst thinking about stopping children needing to escape pain by suicide. #hope #love #kindness.
#SAFAPLACE18 I want to know more about what early intervention in suicide prevention looks like. What works?@TheEIFoundation What about #InfantMentalHealth ? How is #hope sustained?
#SAFAPLACE18 could we be brave enough to say our goal is that ‘we will lose no child or young person to suicide from now on’ ? @CityHackneyCCG @cityhackneygps @mellojonny
#SAFAPLACE18 kindness of a stranger, who said “You don’t need to be embarrassed & ashamed AND ITHINK YOU’LL BE ALRIGHT.” Shame that there was such an abrupt police intervention, but the hope carried him through. @safaplace
#SAFAPLACE18 action for happiness list in case it helps you.
#SAFAPLACE18 need better conversations about maximum mental fitness & better coping strategies. Accepting we all slide up, down & across the lines.

#SAFAPLACE18 just heard about #helplines not being answered, a young person who wanted to check to see what help was available for friends. #citizenresearch
#SAFAPLACE18 @MrJonnyBenjamin showing us photos of his young self and talking about the sadness troubles he lived with - his school showed One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest as mental health awareness. #Safaplace
#SAFAPLACE18 finding peace of mind, therapy & medication but mostly talking about mental health has helped @MrJonnyBenjamin
#SAFAPLACE18 Romeo and Juliet, a suicide story, why don’t we talk about that?
