MGR speakers Charmaine & Mick delivered a very special session @ChelmerValleyHS "I learnt it is better to let someone know you are not ok than protect people from knowing!" Student feedback. WOW! Thank you both for inspiring and supporting through the gift of storytelling.

MGR speaker Paul spoke to students @PilgrimLincs earlier in the month sharing his story of resilience and over coming his adversity to continue a career that he loves. Could finding what you love to do, evolve into one of your coping strategies? #storytelling #resilience

Jack spoke at Central Bedfordshire College about ways we cope with challenges and the helpful strategies we use. Discussions are a great way of creating shared knowledge – if your usual go-to coping strategy isn’t working, why not ask a friend what they do and give it a try?

Our speakers have been busy this last half term sharing their stories in schools across the UK. We loved this feedback from our visit to @RydeAcademy - speakers Spike and Luke inspired resilience, and awareness of the achievements people living with a disability are capable of.

Its Children’s Mental Health Week and this year the theme is ‘Let’s Connect’. Our speakers find all sorts of connections with the young people they share their stories with. Connecting with others can help us all feel less alone and hopeful as we work through life's challenges
