Public Health England launches ‘Every Mind Matters’, the first national NHS mental health campaign.
We don’t need to wait until we are struggling with our mental health; there are lots of things we can do to protect ourselves and prevent problems escalating, just as we do with our physical health.
The new Every Mind Matters campaign encourages adults to be more aware of their mental health and helps them to discover simple steps to look after their mental health and wellbeing.
Every Mind Matters offers a range of useful resources that help spot the signs of common mental health concerns, provides practical self-care tips and guidance and, importantly, explains when to seek further support.
It also has a free NHS-approved online tool on the Every Mind Matters website, which helps people build an action plan to deal with stress and anxiety, boost their mood, improve their sleep and help them feel more in control.
Becky Wright from New Leaf is an Ambassador for rolling out this programme in Somerset. She says, ” We have been waiting for an easy to use resource to help people build their confidence and access information to help them manage anxiety, sleep and low mood. I really like the personalisation of this resource so you can take a short quiz and have a ready made plan just for you and at no cost.”
In support of ‘Every Mind Matters’ and to help you find your way to better mental health Becky will be speaking at the Mental Health in the Workplace Conference at Clarke Willmott Conference in Taunton Blackbrook Gate 1, Blackbrook Park Ave, Taunton TA1 2PG on Wednesday 9th October and in Bristol at 1 Georges Square, Bath Street, Bristol BS1 6BA on the 15th October.
