Scott Pengelly’s Post

Please can I ask you to reshare my post: I want to take a moment to talk about mental health. It's a topic that we don't discuss enough, but it's important that we do. Sadly, I've witnessed the devastating impact that suicide can have, with four people in previous years and three now in 2024 alone taking their own lives. I would like to make a difference, even if because of this post it helps just one person, it would of done its job. If you're struggling, please know that it's okay to reach out for help. You don't have to go through it alone. There are resources available, such as www.mind.org.uk and www.samaritans.org that can provide support. Please let's not forget to check in on each other. It takes just one minute to ask someone if they're okay and then to ask again, it could make all the difference. Let's start the conversation and support each other. #mentalhealthawareness #supporteachother #suicideprevention #samaritans #mind

very pertinent in an environment of redundancies.

Today is World Mental Health Day, a reminder that we all face struggles. I spent much of my 20s navigating the overwhelming and sudden loss of my mum, and without the support of the NHS, I’m not sure where I’d be today. I’ve also seen many friends suffer with their own mental health battles, and it’s a stark reminder that none of us are immune, no matter how great our lives may seem. However, in recent years, I’ve noticed a decline in the availability of care; waiting lists for help are longer (I've heard of some people waiting up to two years), and the system is under increasing pressure. That’s why it’s more important than ever to check in on the people around us, not just those who are visibly struggling. A simple conversation can make all the difference. If you or someone you know needs support, here are some websites and numbers in the UK that offer free help: Mind: 0300 123 3393 or visit mind.org.uk Samaritans: 116 123 or visit samaritans.org Shout (24/7 text support): Text "SHOUT" to 85258 or visit giveusashout.org NHS Every Mind Matters: nhs.uk/every-mind-matters Please take a moment today to check in, and don’t hesitate to reach out to one of the above if you need help. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealthMatters #SupportEachOther #MentalWellbeing #ItsOkToNotBeOk

Really saddened to hear of Liam Payne’s death and the circumstances surrounding it. Praying now for peace for his soul and for those of too many others like him who lost the battle against mental ill health. According to U.K. based mental health charity Mind 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem of some kind each year in England and 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (like anxiety and depression) in any given week in England. According to Children's HopeChest 970 million people around the world struggle with some mental illness or drug abuse. 1 in 4 people will be affected by a mental illness at some point in their lives. 14.3% of deaths worldwide, or approximately 8 million deaths each year, are attributable to mental disorders. And the prevalence of all mental disorders increased by 50% worldwide from 416 million to 615 million between 1990 and 2013. We are living in an age of so much pressure and with so many people impacted by mental health disorders it is impossible that we aren’t interacting with bosses, direct reports, contractors, consultants etc who are reflected in these statistics everyday. Don’t miss the opportunity to support a person in distress because you are oblivious to the signs. Companies please put safeguarding measures in place to safeguard the wellbeing of your most valuable resource.

This week in the UK is Mental Health Awareness Week. I am a huge advocate of open conversations around mental health. We should all be talking to each other, supporting each other and feel able to ask for help when needed. In a study by Mind they found that 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem each year in England, and 1 in 6 people support a mental health issue such as depression or anxiety in any given week! So please, do what you can to support your family, friends and colleagues – and remember that there is no shame in seeking support.
