Thanks for hosting us @TheWaveBristol @WavemakerNick @JoeyJMurphy - great discussions and plans for social prescribing in partnership!
The final session of the day seen Maggy Blagrove from Open Minds Active & James Mallows and Sam Davies from @opsurfwell talk about social prescribing through blue health!
Two amazing examples of how blue health interventions are supporting the health of communities 👏👏
Thanks for sharing @ScotlandYardCSI We’ve been shocked at the scale of suicidal thoughts, intent, and ideation. There is a lack of understanding of the issues surrounding suicide in emergency services - such an important issue.
One day to go...
Tomorrow we will launch our updated ZSA #SuicideAwareness Training 💛
We shared a preview at our webinars today and now we're sharing with you too!
Keep an eye out for our ZSA member communication and updates on our website and social media tomorrow!

Hey both - thanks for taking an interest ( and for supporting us @_IanAdams!! ) we’re still here, and actually expanding even more. We’ve deliberately gone a bit quiet as lots going on behind the scenes to build our foundations in a new structure. ……
Replying to @AceLaurie384
My understanding is that sadly the funding for @opsurfwell was withdrawn by the previous DCP Chief Constable and as a result it has evolved into a business using surf therapy to help people across many different professions.
It’s the same great concept, but funded differently, and more accessible to people & organisations outside of public services.
I’ll stand corrected if I’ve got it wrong.
We now operate in association with @DC_Police and must apologise for not putting a more comprehensive external media update out.
Our website has been fully updated with our new branding and explains the structure - which now includes delivery to private and corporate clients
