It's #MentalHealthWeek in #Canada from CMHA National. We know how those impacted by #hostage situations and #arbitrarydetention can be affected. We have many resources available on our website. #compassionconnects hostageinternational.org/resource/fhsov…

Less than a week to go before Sam Barnes takes on the #ultramarathon #TheLap around Lake #Windermere in the hilly Lake District region for us. Sam was touched by Hostage International and how we supported his family through an intensely difficult time. hostageinternational.org/news/novice-ru…

Today is United Nations #WorldPressFreedomDay
We always hope that #journalists are free to carry out their work, but we know that some are #arbitrarilydetained or taken #hostage . We are here for their families and for hostages after release.

Sam is in the final throes of training for his #ultramarathon for Hostage International. Please support him if you can: bit.ly/3w8FYwz

Tatyana Eatwell Sarah Dobbie Amnesty UK Elika Ashoori Free Nazanin Jason Rezaian Peter Greste FreeArasAmiri Dr Kylie Moore-Gilbert Ibrahim Halawa Laura wickham Yasser Eljuboori So today, as you hear about the London Marathon & see the novelty runners, the celebrities, people running to raise money for causes close to their heart, do think about supporting Anoosheh if you can. The man is a total inspiration, a voice for many voiceless, & a true hero. 🙏

As a small charity we struggle to get places, so if you're lucky enough to get a ballot place and would like to help families of hostages and hostages after their release - like Anoosheh Ashoori who is running the #LondonMarathon today, please let get in touch! #goodluck

Heroes indeed and we hope you caught Anoosheh Ashoori (although maybe like needles in a haystack?)!
