Welcome to another one of my mental health campaigning videos. On the 24th of May is world schizophrenia day. Schizophrenia usually is classified as an umbrella term regarding severe mental illness. World schizophrenia day helps to education, campaign and highlight the issues about schizophrenia, which can also be a misunderstood term.
Welcome back to my blog site. It has been a while since I did a post about carers, so this time I thought to raise an important topic. This topic will be on the use of referring carers.
Welcome to another one of my ‘caringmind’ blog posts. My site and sometimes videos help to raise awareness of carers caring for those suffering mental health problems. When I mean carers, I do not mean care-workers. I am talking about unpaid carers, that being a friend, relative, those very close to the cared for.
Welcome back to my blogsite. As usual, a quick word. I raise awareness of mental health from a carer or caregiver perspective. Usually this channel is dedicated to carers, but there is always space for discussing mental health.
The video below is to help raise awareness of Mental Health Month, which takes place over in the states.
Mental Health Month occurs during the month of May and the theme for Mental Health Month is Risky Business.
Welcome to the April 2017 Mental Health Carers forum updates.
The MH Carers forum usually takes place once a month from Carers Lewisham. The carers who attend the forum are those who are unpaid looking for someone suffer mental health, but the forum has a few important notes.
Welcome back to another blog post from Matthew Mckenzie a carer from South London. I have done another collaboration video on the subject of bullying, which is actually quite common in schools and in the workplace, although not just restricted to those two areas.
What is it like to live with someone suffering from a mental illness? I felt it was about time to do a quick write up about the situation. This time I decided to collaborate with someone living through a mental illness in order to get their views.
The collaboration was from an experience mental health survivor Jessica Temple who has her own YouTube Channel.

We both did a video where I talk about my role as a carer and Jessica who is from the States talks about her experience as a Care Taker.
Welcome to another one of my mental health awareness blog posts. This blog is about World Health Day 2017. Basically on the 7th of April 2017, the World Health Organisation campaigns on health conditions. For 2017, the theme for World Health Day is Depression.
Welcome back to another blog post. This one is about World Bipolar Day, which takes place on the 30th of March each year.
Around 60 million people suffer from bipolar disorder around the world, so it is very important to help raise awareness of the condition.
Basically World Bipolar Day is a collaboration between the Asian Network of Bipolar Disorder (ANBD), the International Bipolar Foundation (IBPF), and the International Society for Bipolar Disorders (ISBD).
Welcome to another blog post from a carer in south London. Just a quick update, one of the projects I am interesting in helping to run is to be involved and help chair carer forums. I am hoping to write a blog at a later date regarding the importance of carer forums, but for now, this blog post is an update from the Carers Lewisham Mental Health Carer forum.
