Mental Health Awareness Week 9 – 15th May 2022
What will you be doing this week?
Here at Livewell Training Academy we are a great advocate for focussing on achieving good mental health whether that be internally or externally.
Why not enrol on one of our mental health courses – even if it’s just a basic mental health awareness course. If you are an employee share this with your organisation and even become an accredited Mental Health First Aider.
Loneliness is going to be our theme for the month of May! Why loneliness? Loneliness is affecting more and more of us in the UK and has had a huge impact on our physical and mental health during the pandemic. Our connection to other people and our community is fundamental to protecting our mental health and we need to find better ways of tackling the epidemic of loneliness. We can all play a part in this. During May we will be raising awareness of the impact of loneliness on our mental wellbeing and the practical steps we can take to address it. – keep a look out or even e-mail andrea.mahn@nhs.net or Hayley.rider@nhs.net and pop in for a cup of tea and a slice of cake
Reducing loneliness is a major step towards a mentally healthy society.
