We are back and kicking off season 3 in the middle of Mental health awareness week with a podcast where we maybe go off topic and talk a bit too much about climbing and getting into mother nature...
In this episode of Chat chit Chris talks to Luke who talks about the loss of his mother the other things that began to make his mental health spiral. Luke tried a number of things to help his mental health but ultimately a period of time during covid allowed him to change his perspective on his life and change the trajectory he was on. He is a very impressive guy and has started a mental health social called "Chalking helps" to allow a space where like minded people can come together to climb and connect.
Below is a run down of different parts of the podcast but what we learn is that movement and adventure in the big outdoors are two crucial things that help him manage his mental health.

Season 2 Christmas Special- Jo, bereavement support and paperchase grief
We know that Christmas can be a particularly tough time for people who may struggle with their mental health; from masking at social events to feeling guilty when we do experience them glimmers of fun and enjoyment.
This links very closely to those who have experienced loss and why this Christmas special focuses on how to support others and yourself through the festive season(and other significant dates) when you have experienced bereavement in the family. We welcome Jo, the founder of BCSY (Bereaved Children Support York) on to the podcast to discuss both her experiences of losing her husband and her sons father as well as the charity she set up. On this episode, amongst talking about our favourite Christmas songs and traditions, we chat about how to manage expectations around Christmas and the communication and honesty that is essential when you've lost a close family member.
Whether you are a parent trying to support your family through the festive season or a young person trying to understand the loss and bereavement you are going through, this episode of chat chit gives some gems of advice of how to best deal with significant dates and the Christmas season.
