The theme for this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is ‘Body Image’ – how we think and feel about our own bodies. One in five UK adults have felt shame because of their body image in the last year.
Action is needed to build and promote positive body image and support good mental health and wellbeing, not only about our bodies but also our wider mental health. We fully support raising awareness of mental health issues and campaigning for a change in the way mental health is dealt with in businesses, our relationships and most importantly ourselves. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #Support #SmashingTheStigma #Change #Wellbeing
Its Mental Health Awareness Week, this is a very important issue that affects many people both inside and out of the workplace. Something we are very committed to supporting and helping overcome.
In light of this we are pleased to be partnering with SANE Mental Health Charity, a leading UK based charity established to improve the quality of life for those affected by mental health.
Here at Opus Talent Solutions we are not only committed to supporting those seeking help from SANE but also our very own employees and their mental health in and outside the workplace. We are proud to say that we have numerous qualified mental health first aiders that are on hand to offer support and guidance when our employees need it most.
