Nearly a year since the Hastings Harkathon, so we thought we'd better do something.... Here's our 'Bavard Bar' talk from last week about why we're going to do what we're going to do! bavardbar.co.uk/past-bavards…

Lovely, but not at all surprising! bbc.co.uk/news/world-4845994…

We've been quiet for a bit, but on Sat 9th Feb, come along to Hastings' first HARKATHON! Some good, old fashioned listening, with a cup of tea and a biscuit. Check out the poster for the info.

"About 10% (pf children) have tried to hide a parent's handset to get attention"... are you device-free at meals? bbc.co.uk/news/business-4636…

It's been great to see so much awareness of #WorldMentalHealthDay this year. Wonder what we'll do to mark it at #HarkeyMalarkey cafe next year. Suggestions welcome!

Sometimes it can be difficult to understand what people mean when they talk about mental health problems. Our new video can help make things a little clearer > bit.ly/2Cy4w4n #WMHD18 #WorldMentalHealthDay

And spot this from Mooplehog in Okehampton "We're part of this scheme and our Chat & Natter table is used daily. You never know what people are going through, a nice chat can mean the world". ❤️❤️

so important to challenge the idea that talking about mental health is admitting a weakness (for women, men, children, absolutely anyone and everyone) x.com/TimetoChange/status/98…

Too many men don't feel comfortable talking about mental health – we’re working with @forduk to change that. Don't let mental health be the elephant in the room: if your mate’s acting differently, step in.

a time for sonder: the moments of realisation that everyone's experience of life is as rich and meaningful to them as yours is to you. youtube.com/watch?v=E9swS1Vl…
