World Mental Health Day

10 Oct 2018
This year’s World Mental Health Day on Wednesday, 10 October will focus on raising awareness of the importance of good mental health at work – an initiative fully supported by Lichfields.
 
Mental health issues affect one in four adults but the problems are often hidden from view because of the stigma that surrounds them. Mental health issues come in many forms but in the workplace the most common ones are stress, anxiety and depression.
 
We are raising awareness of this issue in order to create a supportive environment for those who might be suffering from mental health issues or know others who are; and to set out how we can be proactive in promoting good practice in the management of this issue moving forward.
