Talking about Mental Health

Duration: 29 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two Northern Ireland HD

Julian and Yvonne are in the studio meeting with Victoria Nelson of Deaf4Deaf - a remote counselling service for deaf clients - to talk about how deaf people can get the right help for their mental wellbeing.

Jay Thomas-Morton shares his experiences as a happily married father diagnosed with depression and anxiety – how did he get the help he needed, and was he able to talk about his problems with others?

We meet deaf actress Rose Ayling-Ellis, one of the stars of Stephen Poliakoff’s new six-part drama series, Summer of Rockets.

We pay tribute to Jerry Hanifin – a beloved deaf storyteller, teacher and role model for many in the deaf community.

We’re joined in the studio by Rinkoo Barpaga and Paul Lynch to discuss whether the deaf community needs to think more carefully about the signs they use for ethnicity and race – are the signs themselves racist? Show less
