This top was released by Topshop and Topman in collaboration with Calm (Campaign Against Living Miserably) for World Mental Health Day 2019. The front of the T-shirt crosses out the word 'Collected' and writes above it 'Connected'. On the back of the t-shirt, it has instructions on 'how to handle with care', in the format of typical washing instructions. The instructions include information about how to access the CALM helpline. This t-shirt has been a great conversation starter over the years and led to some really important conversations within the community about mental health and access.

This t-shirt was bought by my mum at a retail store. I came out to her a few years previously and randomly one day she gifted me this t-shirt. We never had a specific conversation about the random present. She's the type of person to see something that she thinks someone else would like and then buys it 'just because'. The first few years after coming out was quite tumultuous so it meant a lot at the time. I don't wear it because it doesn't fit me but I can't throw it away, so it stays hanging on the clothing rail

Article from Gscene Magazine February 2007 JOLLY HOCKEY STICKS! The Brighton Honeybees Hockey Club have been going strong for well over ten years. They're a self run community team attracting players with a wide range of ages, backgrounds and skills, with the emphasis on having fun and keeping fit. Long standing player and vice captain Vic Finnimore explains: “The Bees were founded by ladies Whopps and Serbiton, along with other disillusioned women who were unhappy playing for their existing or previous clubs as they were felt to be too stuffy and competitive, and not particularly gay-friendly. We didn’t set out to be a lesbian team – it just kind of happened!” This year the Honeybees home ground is up at the Stanley Deason Leisure Centre, Wilson Avenue, Brighton where they play home games on Saturday mornings and train on Wednesday evenings from 6-7pm. They play in Division 2 of the Sussex Ladies League and are currently 9th in the table. They've also reached the semi finals of the Sussex Shield and will play against South Saxons 2s on 31 March. The Honeybees are a friendly sociable team and always looking for supporters and new players so if you fancy going along to watch or joining them on the pitch contact them.
