Today is Trans Day of Remembrance, a day to honour and remember the trans and non-binary lives lost. Days like this can be heavy and sadly can also increase hate towards trans people. We want to remind you we’re here if you're struggling and stand by you in solidarity 💚 1/3

Most of us have a friend on our mind that we keep meaning to message, maybe because they’ve gone a bit quiet or they’re having a tough time. But life gets so busy we end up putting it off. If you’ve got a spare moment now, this is your reminder to check in with them.

When you're experiencing suicidal thoughts, it can be difficult to think beyond them. We spoke with people who shared what helps when they feel suicidal. From watching TV for distraction to taking it one day at a time. How do you support yourself? 💚

If you take one thing from World Suicide Prevention Day today it should be this: if you think someone isn’t OK, ask them about it. You can interrupt someone’s suicidal thoughts. You could even save their life. Let’s prevent suicide today. Because tomorrow’s too late.
