With so many pressures on people, much more investment in mental health services is needed. Along with bravery, strength and persistence—the qualities we need to face mental illness and to fight stigma.

The Social Model of Disability is a way of thinking about disability. It says that barriers stop us from equally taking part in society, not our impairments. If you remove the barriers we still have impairments but we are no longer disabled! Learn more 👉 bit.ly/3lJ5Gha
