#006 Digging into the detail

In today’s bubble, I talk about deconstructing complex ideas and rebuilding them again, with help from scientist, author and broadcaster Professor Alice Roberts. And I stick to my guns!

#005 Cries for help

In this episode I tell the true story of how I saved a cat’s life today. No, really! The sound of the screaming, meowing cat was horrendous, and I’m sure the memory will stay with me for a long time. But what happens if no-one can hear you screaming when you really need help?

I also mention the very worthwhile Only Us Campaign, which aims to help us see people with mental health labels as #OnlyUs. In their words, ‘4/4 of us are human beings’. Please check them out on Twitter: @OnlyUsCampaign
