Joyful Doctor - Weekly Free Resource

🙌 Weekly featured free resource 🙌 💕☕ Tea & Empathy ☕💕

Tea & Empathy was founded on Valentines Day 2016 - following the sad loss of yet another U.K. doctor, Dr Rose Polge, to suicide.

Tea & Empathy is a national peer-to-peer support network, based on social media, that offers support to thousands of healthcare workers working in the NHS. They offer signposting, 1:1 chats, messaging and discussion around any support that is needed. 24 hours a day there are people supporting one another, with basic compassion, who have been through similar situations and are able to offer advice and can empathise.

•

Members can post as themselves or anonymously via one of the many wondeful volunteer admins.

•

Anyone can read the posts in the main group and if you want to become a member and post/comment, simply follow the link on the Facebook page -

There are also closed regional groups and some more private groups for high-stigma areas such as addiction and making mistakes.  Simply ask an admin to point you in the right direction for what you need.
