My brother was creative, fun, caring and kind. He also lived with schizophrenia.
I'm constantly struck by how infrequently we hear about stories like his.
So I told the one I know. @WalesOnline walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-new…
www.walesonline.co.uk 'My brother took his own life - we need to talk about illnesses like his' Many people experience schizophrenia and psychosis but we rarely hear their stories

Most of these companies announcing closures on Monday pay people by the hour. Ergo, this isn't a paid holiday.
Would all these workers really prefer to lose a day's pay to sit at home watching the telly while so many struggle with bills and costs?
McDonald's UK @McDonaldsUK Sep 14, 2022
All of our UK restaurants will be closed on Monday until 5pm, to allow everyone at McDonald’s to pay their respects to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Operating hours and services may vary after 5pm, so please check our app before travelling.

My colleagues do great things and I’m proud of every one of them. They deserve to feel the value they create is recognised by their employer and rewarded with fair consolidated pay.
That’s the only way we hold on to these talented, passionate people.

A great turnout on our picket line outside the Reach offices in Cardiff. Lots of young members supporting the strike action.

Notable by it's absence is the number of successful convictions @gwentpolice
And if there are defendants who have been charged with court appearance dates pending, why not share those names with the local press (under agreement not for immediate publication) so they can attend?
Gwent Police @gwentpolice Apr 13, 2022
Over 50 arrests made following a year-long operation targeting sexual exploitation in Pill.
