It’s , and time for a 〰️ shout out to our Cera Men employee resource group members sporting their new facial hair! Sponsorship link: https://bit.ly/4hMHzeA

But quite rightly, this month the conversation goes deeper than a great 'tache - Movember is about men’s health, both physical and mental.

👨For too long, men have felt pressure to be stoic and self-reliant. However, tragically, men account for 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK, often because stigma prevents them from speaking up or seeking help early.

Our blog, The Silent Struggle: Addressing Men's Mental Health, shines a light on this crisis and offers tangible ways we can all help break the silence.

The blog touches on:
☠️ Toxic masculinity's toll: The pressure to "man up" and suppress emotion leads to internal struggles like masked depression and substance abuse.

💪A sign of strength: Seeking help is the bravest act of self-care a man can take.

👨‍❤️‍👨How you can help: Simple steps like checking in with a friend and creating safe spaces for conversations can save lives.

Let’s change the narrative this Movember. 👉 Read The Silent Struggle https://bit.ly/44jRYJH

REMINDER: The clocks go back tonight, meaning some of us get an extra hour in bed 🙌 and those of us on the night shift have a slightly longer night 😐

We are now heading towards winter, with less hours of daylight and darker nights drawing in. It's also colds and flu season, which usually sees our sector and the NHS under extra 'winter pressure'.

This Menopause Awareness Day we're encouraging our carers who might be experiencing symptoms to look after their wellbeing.💜

Giving a thought to self-care can always be helpful and what's often recommended to tackle menopause symptoms is 'lifestyle medicine' - looking after your sleep, diet, exercise and stress awareness.

And if being told to look after your sleep, diet, exercise and stress gives you anger management issues, we hear you! It's not going to solve everything, but it may help.🙂

Take a look at our blog 10 wellbeing tips for care assistants for general guidance, and tips on sleep and staying active. https://bit.ly/47JmzAk

Meet Maureen 💜
At 73, Maureen is a shining example of how life experience and a desire to help others can lead to a deeply fulfilling career later in life. After two decades in customer care at BT, Maureen embarked on a second chapter, discovering her true calling as a care assistant with Cera at our Halton branch. Her story demonstrates the value that individuals over 50 bring to the care sector, and how rewarding it can be.

💬"It’s one of the best jobs I’ve ever done, I get a lot out of it, knowing the people on my round are being looked after.”

A gentle reminder for our team this 💜
Caring can be an emotionally challenging job.

And it can hit carers and branch staff hard when a much-loved client is receiving end-of-life care, or dies. If you've experienced bereavement recently, read our blog about coping with grief when caring ends. https://bit.ly/48uuxhs Look after yourselves, and each other.

The theme of International Day of Older Persons this year is building belonging - to highlight the vital role that social connections play in enriching lives.
