Eat a balanced diet and drink sensibly: Improving your diet can protect against feelings of anxiety and depression. 2. Maintain friendships: Just listening and talking to friends who are feeling down can make a huge difference. So make sure your devote time to maintaining your friendships both for their sake and your own. 3. Maintain close relationships: Close relationships affect how we feel - so nurture them and if there is a problem within a relationship, try and resolve it. 4. Take exercise: The effects of exercise on mood are immediate. Whether it is a workout in the gym or a simple walk or bike ride, it can be uplifting. Exercise can also be great fun socially. 5. Sleep: Sleep has both physical and mental benefits. Physically it is the time when the body can renew its energy store but sleep also helps us to rebuild our mental energy. 6. Laugh: A good laugh does wonders for the mind and soul. 7. Cry: It is good to cry. Even though it may feel terrible at the time, a good cry can release pent up feelings, and people often feel better afterwards. 8. Ask for help when you need it: The longer you leave a problem, the worse it will get. Don't be scared to ask for help from a family member, friend or professional. 9. Make time for you: Do you sometimes feel like you have no time for yourself? Make time for your hobbies and interests. 10. Remember, work isn't everything: Ninety one million working days a year are lost to mental ill-health in the UK so maintain a balance between work and other interests. 5! Introduction Welcome to the Directory for Health and Wellbeing signposting you to Services and Resources in Argyll & Bute. This directory has been produced as part of the modernisation of mental health services in Argyll & Bute to aid front line staff and members of the public in finding out relevant information on what resources are available in their area to support people to get well, be well and stay well. Overall, our objective is to promote mental wellbeing and prevent mental ill health. Where people do become unwell we are designing the services to promote independence and recovery. ‘There is no such thing as good health without good mental health’ Awareness of the importance of Mental Health and Wellbeing is essential in order to recognise and protect our own mental health and that of friends and loved ones. There are many factors that influence our mental health and wellbeing, life has its ups and downs. When things are going well for us, most of us feel mentally and emotionally well. Everyday set backs, long term illness, bereavement, separation, caring for someone, unemployment, family, housing and money problems are just a few examples that can cause us to feel anxious, stressed or depressed. 6! It is a well-known fact that 1 in 4 people will experience a period of mental health problems at any time during their life. We are all individuals. We all think and behave in our own way and react differently to stresses and strains. Sometimes it can be hard to deal with things, but with the right help, support and understanding it can be easier to cope with the difficult times. Remember, you are not alone. This directory aims to signpost the reader to the support that is at their doorstep. Good mental health can bring a healthier lifestyle, better relationships and greater satisfaction at work and at home. For comments, additions and updates to this directory, please email: [email protected] The most updated version of this directory can be downloaded electronically from the following website: www.nhshighland.scot.nhs.uk/CHP/ArgyllandBute You can pick up a copy at your health centre, or local library. Thanks and appreciation is given to all participating agencies and individuals for their contributions to this directory. 7! ! ! ! ! 8!

My Crisis Contacts Name Number Notes: 11! Planning for an Emergency or Crisis It’s always best to plan for an emergency or crisis when you’re not actually in the middle of one. Things to think about are: Who would support me if I had an emergency or crisis Do I have their contact numbers If I have to be away from home, who would water my plants, look after my pets, cancel my paper, empty my fridge, collect my post etc. Some examples could be your neighbour, a family member, a support worker, a minister or spiritual advisor etc. It can also be useful to have numbers at hand for domestic emergencies such as burst pipes, gas leaks, electricity, police etc. You will find them in your local phone directory. There is some space under “My Crisis Contacts” for contact numbers and you may find it helpful to fill them in now on the previous page. 12!

  • Records of Species and Subspecies Recorded in Scotland on up to 20 Occasions
    Records of species and subspecies recorded in Scotland on up to 20 occasions In 1993 SOC Council delegated to The Scottish Birds Records Committee (SBRC) responsibility for maintaining the Scottish List (list of all species and subspecies of wild birds recorded in Scotland). In turn, SBRC appointed a subcommittee to carry out this function. Current members are Dave Clugston, Ron Forrester, Angus Hogg, Bob McGowan Chris McInerny and Roger Riddington. In 1996, Peter Gordon and David Clugston, on behalf of SBRC, produced a list of records of species recorded in Scotland on up to 5 occasions (Gordon & Clugston 1996). Subsequently, SBRC decided to expand this list to include all acceptable records of species recorded on up to 20 occasions, and to incorporate subspecies with a similar number of records (Andrews & Naylor 2002). The last occasion that a complete list of records appeared in print was in The Birds of Scotland, which included all records up until 2004 (Forrester et al. 2007). During the period from 2002 until 2013, amendments and updates to the list of records appeared regularly as part of SBRC’s Scottish List Subcommittee’s reports in Scottish Birds. Since 2014 these records have appear on the SOC’s website, a significant advantage being that the entire list of all records for such species can be viewed together (Forrester 2014). The Scottish List Subcommittee are now updating the list annually. The current update includes records from the British Birds Rarities Committee’s Report on rare birds in Great Britain in 2015 (Hudson 2016) and SBRC’s Report on rare birds in Scotland, 2015 (McGowan & McInerny 2017).
