Mersey Care welcomes students to Merseyside

MERSEY Care is marking the start of Freshers' activities across Merseyside by putting together a package of services designed to ensure new students to the Region have care at hand for their physical and mental health needs.

Starting University is an exciting time for students, with many moving out of family homes and local areas for the 1st time to begin this new chapter of their lives. With this change comes new friends, new opportunities, new hobbies and for some, new stresses and anxieties.

Dr Noir Thomas, Mersey Care's Medical Director, said:- "Mersey Care is here to offer support to students during this period of transition and throughout University life. We want to help students enjoy their time here in Merseyside, knowing our services are accessible. It's been a tough couple of years for students and young people, so it's essential we promote our services now more than ever, so no young person feels alone."

To support with this promotion, Mersey Care have created a Freshers Week animation, and a Walk in Centre animation. Other key pages for students can be found on our website. They include:-

Student Mental Health:- NHS.UK.

Sexual Health:- NHS.UK.

Emotional Wellbeing:- NHS.UK.

Walk in Centres:- NHS.UK.

Finally, we want to take this opportunity to welcome students to Merseyside. Enjoy your time here and make the most of every opportunity, but most of all look after yourselves, check on your friends, and stay safe.
 


The top 10 most fashionable baby names in the UK

BELLA and Alexander are the most popular baby names based on the fashion industry. Research conducted by online gaming experts CasinoScores.Com analysed data from ONS and baby name websites The Bump and Nameberry to establish which fashionable moniker is the most popular, with Bella and Alex taking the top spots. Bella, after Supermodel and Influencer Bella Hadid, ranks as the most popular girls name from the fashion industry, beating out all the other fashion inspired names such as:- Stella, Kendall, Gigi and Donatella.

Alexander placed 1st amongst boys' names, and is prominent in the fashion industry thanks to star designers Alexander McQueen and Alexander Wang. Alexander ranked highest on both ONS data for the number of children in the UK with the name and on the number of searches it receives on Nameberry, establishing its spot as the most popular fashion related boys' name in the UK.

Alexander McQueen passed away in 2010 yet his brand his still immensely popular, with 1 of the designers from the Alexander McQueen house, Sarah Burton, designing the Duchess of Cambridge's wedding gown.

The 2nd most popular names with links to the fashion industry were revealed as Anna and Michael. The most influential Anna in the fashion industry is American Vogue Editor in Chief Anna Wintour, who was the chairman of this week's MET Gala. Similarly, Michael Kors, famous for its signature bags, is 1 of the biggest names in fashion.

The 3rd most popular boys' name related to the fashion industry is John, shared by Designers:- John Varvatos and John Galliano, who was the Head Designer for Givenchy and Dior.

Naomi was the 3rd most popular girls' name and has seen a sharp rise in searches on baby name websites since British supermodel Naomi Campbell announced the birth of her baby daughter. Naomi, which means:- 'sweetness and delightful,' saw a dip in popularity in the eighties according to ONS figures, however since 1992 the name's popularity has only ever risen, correlating with Naomi Campbell's rise to supermodel fame.

Creeping into the top 10 girls' names based on the fashion industry are Kaia and Kendall, both 9th and 10th respectively. Taken from models Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford's daughter and Kendall Jenner, the highest paid model in the world, the new generation of models are clearly having an impact on wider culture. The name Kaia has seen a dramatic 33 % jump in popularity since 2018, when Kaia Gerber made her 1st runway appearance.

A spokesperson for CasinoScores commented:- "Lockdown has led to a rise in fashion sales thanks to online buying so it is interesting to see how influential the fashion industry is on what people choose to name their children. With 767 articles written about the MET Gala in the last year alone, it is clear to see the influence of the fashion industry is not dwindling."
