Another brilliant night on Monday with 14 brave men attending and 1 for the very first time.

“Some days we get it wrong
Stick the kettle on
And if you're low
You're not alone
I hope you know”

Come and have a brew and biscuits we have good one, on these cold nights at Kippax welfare and have good old chat with a bunch of brothers.

For some people, symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can feel more noticeable or harder to manage during the winter.

But small things can help:

🔵 try some physical activity – anything that gets you moving
🔵 make the most of natural light – getting outside or sitting near windows
🔵 plan for tougher days – shifting stressful tasks or building in more rest

There’s also treatment available if you’re finding things really tough – such as light therapy, talking therapies or medication.

Antibiotics don’t treat coughs, colds, or flu.

Rest, fluids, and paracetamol are usually the best medicine.

This World Antibiotics Awareness Week help keep antibiotics working!

Antibiotics have changed the way we treat infections. But if we take them too often, or if we use them to treat the wrong things, they stop working.

Antibiotics don’t work for colds and flu.

Only taking them for the right things helps to keep them working for when you and your family need them most.
