On this episode we're talking about how we can each be the reason someone else has a good day or gets through a tough time. We're not talking huge superhero moments here, more those teeny moments that are easy to gloss over but can make a difference every day.

Drew was raised in the north east of England and now residing on the local coastline, Drew has lived with mental ill health for over 20 years, first emerging as a teenager. Using his lived experiences of body dysmorphia, health anxiety and obsessive compulsive behaviour, he champions acceptance, understanding and affirmative action. He is passionate about challenging the stigma surrounding men's mental health and the intersectional prejudices faces by the LGBTQIA+ community.

Hannah is a champion of mental health awareness and a self-published author. Writing became an anchor for Hannah as she experienced her own mental breakdown back in 2018. Channelling her feelings and reflections onto paper, she soon made her diary into a book - ‘100 Days’ - an honest and thought-provoking account, full of practical tips and insights on mental health. Motivated by her own experience and determined to bring a step-change to mental health awareness in the workplace, Hannah set up her own charity ‘The Mental Health Community’ in 2019. The charity is dedicated to making work a safe place for people with a mental health condition. Her focus is the impactful ‘Community Headspace’ programme which she has successfully delivered among a variety of organisations, all dedicated to ensuring that their working culture is as accessible and inclusive as possible. Hannah lives with her family in Devon. A big fan of the power of sea air, as time allows, she also loves to catch the odd wave.
