What more can we do to support people with poor mental health? Call 08085 92 95 00 or Text 80295

Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths discovered that opening up and talking can save lives amid his long battle with depression.
The 28 year old returned to competitive action last week following eight months on the side lines after taking time out of football to deal with personal issues.
He knows he needs to continue talking about those issues with people rather than bottling them up in order to look after his mental health.
And he encouraged anyone else experiencing the illness to do the same.
The Scotland international said without the help of the club, friends, family and support he wouldn't be sitting here now.
