Patrick Smith tells us all about his new book, 'The Dummy Pass', which is a story for children aged between 8 and 12, with themes of friendship, bullying, rugby, divorce and a magic portal.  "An original, imaginative and sensitive book, The Dummy Pass beautifully captures the conflicting emotions of a boy desperately trying to find a firm footing as his world begins to fall apart".   You can order a copy from patricksmith.uk/books/the-dummy-pass.

In Aug-Sep we focus on World Suicide Prevention Day #WSPD on September 10th. Here, Dipti Tait talks about how she has helped numerous clients out of despair. Most people who talk about suicide don't actually want to die; they just feel stuck. Join ManDad and become part of a supportive community - www.mandad.media

Dipti Tait talks this month about learning parenting as a new skill, much like any other practical task and bringing logic and reason back in to balance any emotional overload. 

She also discusses change as grief and how we can handle any sense of loss for our life or identity pre-baby. Dipti covers new parents in her latest book ‘Planet Grief’, which comes out this October!

Listen to the amazing story of Dipti Tait as she discusses how, during adversity and mental health issues, Dipti took the bull by the horns and taught herself how it was just as important to keep your mind in good order, just like you do with your body.
