Healthy mental and physical health often come hand in hand. Here you will find all the blogs that cover various aspects of physical and mental health. It’s so important that we speak out about these issues and how prevelent they are in today’s society. By talking we start to end the stigma and encourage those in need to get help. When writing from her personal experiences, Rebecca always aims to be honestly and raw with how she has felt and the challenges she has faced, please feel free to comment, share and contribute to the conversation, but please do so in a considerate manner. The SWBC Community is a safe space.
