WORD<br />
Hello everyone,<br />
I hope your return to education has gone smoothly<br />
with as little hiccups as possible! <strong>October</strong> is a great<br />
time of the year, being one of my favourites! It’s that<br />
time where you can really begin to get snuggly infront<br />
of a fire with toasted marshmallows and fluffy<br />
socks (cliché I know).<br />
However, the dark nights and dark mornings can<br />
make coping with mental health difficulties a lot<br />
harder for some – so keep an eye out for your friends<br />
and offer that support if they appear to be struggling.<br />
On <strong>October</strong> 10th it is World Mental Health Day<br />
#WMHD – I have written an article on this for you all<br />
to read! I hope you enjoy! We are holding non-uniform<br />
days at some of our collaborating schools to raise<br />
money for the mental health work we do here at<br />
<strong>Student</strong> <strong>Life</strong> too!<br />
Trigger warning: this month we feature articles on<br />
people’s everyday experiences and battles with<br />
mental health, anxiety and panic.<br />
If any of the articles have affected you in any way and<br />
you want someone<br />
to talk to, please feel<br />
free to<br />
contact myself or<br />
another team<br />
member.<br />
As always,<br />
Peace and Love xo<br />
