It's so important to talk. Thanks for these powerful words @GeorgeRussell63.
It's also important that when we do talk, the support we need is there. That's why Mind is fighting for better, for everyone with a mental health problem 💙 #InternationalMensDay
ALT As men it can be hard to open up, but it’s important to speak up if you're struggling. Talking isn’t the whole solution, but it can help us feel less alone and more able to cope. By removing the stigma around how mental health is perceived, we can encourage others to get the support they need. George Russell Formula 1 Driver

Gwen Buck's remarkable sporting career spanned 4 Paralympic Games, where she won medals in table tennis, lawn bowls and swimming!
We discovered some amazing paper documents hidden within the @wheelpower collection. In a mystery suitcase with Gwen's initials on the front, was a treasure trove of newspaper cuttings, certificates and even an invitation from Prime Minister Harold Wilson, to a reception at 10 Downing Street in honour of the athletes who competed at the 1964 Tokyo Paralympics.
Want to know what else we found? Come this way! paralympicheritage.org.uk/bl…
