On #InternationalMensDay we want to shout out to all our male NHS staff and the amazing work they do!

Currently only c13% of our clients identify as male - we want to change this. There's no stigma in seeking counselling and our self-referral process is completely confidential πŸ‘‰ frontline19.com

We just CANNOT keep turning a blind eye to the intense and relentless pressure our nurses and other frontline staff are under.

NHS staff cannot care for the nation if the system is breaking them in the process.

COVID-19 Commemoration programme: help and support Organisations who can support bereavement, mental health, long COVID, frontline workers and children.

Gratifying to be 1 of only 2 orgs credited by govt under the category of Frontline Worker Support - but we receive no govt funding.

We're proud to have helped a million workers since 2020.

It's not only me that thinks supporting frontline healthcare staff should be the main objective in returning to pre-covid levels of productivity.

Supporting our workers should be the main priority. You can't run a service when your biggest asset is exhausted.

And you can't argue with the science.

Corridor care is an β€˜everyday reality’ not confined to winter, doctors warn CORRIDOR care is an β€œeveryday reality” rather than a winter pressure, doctors warned today, as new research shows three in five have treated patients in temporary spaces such as cupboards this summer....

Our CEO @clairegoodwinfee.bsky.social said:

"It’s not just patient dignity being stripped away, it’s the wellbeing of those holding the NHS together. Corridor care isn’t just a symptom of failure; it’s a warning signal our workforce is at breaking point."

As the pressures on our frontline workers continue, so must our resolve to stand beside them - not just in words, but in meaningful support.

We’re excited for what’s ahead. Because when partners for change unite, the impact multiplies.

We're a bit emosh & HUGELY grateful to Aberfeldy Drama Club in Scotland who very generously donated their ticket sales of Β£1000 to us.

They staged 'Tending' - a play about NHS nurses during Covid. This will really make a difference.

Study reveals emotional toll on ambulance staff during Covid pandemic - Emergency Services Times A Swansea University study has highlighted the intense emotional and operational strain faced by UK ambulance staff during the Covid-19 pandemic.

"One call handler described the impact of the crisis: β€œIt was probably the toughest thing I’ve ever done […] I was coming home and standing in the corridor taking my uniform off and running in the shower, and sobbing my heart out day after day after day.”
