As the year comes to a close, we’re feeling so grateful for everyone we’ve trained, spoken with, and interacted with💛

In a year where so much of the mental health industry has been navigating change and challenges, we’re thankful to still be going, growing, and doing cool things around the world🌍

From workshops and talks to events and everyday connections, none of it would be possible without you, our community, our collaborators, our friends.

Big love from all of us at We Are Hummingbird🫶🏼

It was an absolute joy to be a guest speaker at the Boldyn Networks Movember bash!  
 
They put on an amazing evening to celebrate the amazing fundraising they have been doing over the Month of November for Movember. 
 
Having the chance to talk to a group of dedicated, focused and caring people outside of their working day was a real highlight to my week🫶🏼

It’s been a while… but good things come to those who wait! 🎶✨

Introducing our 12 Days of Christmas – Southsea Independents Playlist

12 songs, carefully picked in a nod to the 12 men on average who take their life everyday in the UK chosen by some of your favourite Southsea faces.

Keep an eye on our stories each day as we share the stories behind each song and why these amazing people chose them.

From power ballads to acoustic gems, classic house, pop, dance… and yes, a bit of Mariah! 🎤🎄 This playlist has it all and is one of our favourite things to put together.

If you fancy submitting your own playlist head to our website to drop your submission!

Do mental health influencers really know what they’re talking about? 🤔

Personal stories are powerful, sharing, opening up, and talking about mental health is so important. Every conversation matters, and every story can help someone feel less alone.

But when it comes to training, learning, and education, this is where accredited programs and proper guidance should take the lead.

We can celebrate the conversation AND invest in the training that actually equips us to help.

âś… Learn to really support someone..not just tick a box

This week was while the focus is on this amazing course, please make sure your training is delivered by an accredited instructor.

We’re hearing too many stories of organisations choosing “the cheaper quote,” only to discover it wasn’t recognised or up to standard.

Always check with your trainer you’ll receive the aftercare and support you’ll need when it matters💚

Parents… this one’s for you💙

As part of Self-Care Awareness Week, we’re hosting a calm, welcoming session designed to give you a breather, a reset, and a few tools to take home.

We’ll start with a gentle 20-minute guided meditation to switch off the noise and decompress. Then we’ll roll into an interactive workshop exploring stress, self-care and how to actually fit it into real life when you’ve got little humans running the show.

📍
🗓 Mon 17th November | 1pm – 2:30pm
🎟 Sign up through the Play Cafe website (spaces are limited to 15)

Come along, breathe, reset… and leave with a few simple ideas that make life feel a little lighter.

What can you expect from me at the Warehouse Takeover?

I’ll be starting the night with a talk about mental health and the role music plays in how we connect, heal, and process what life throws at us. You’ll experience it all through wireless headphones, as I take you on a journey through sound that ends with a powerful guided meditation.

It’s about slowing down, tuning in, and remembering the power music can have when we really listen🎧✌🏼
