Mental health is everyone’s business ...
... individuals, families, employers, educators and communities all need to play their part.
Good mental health and resilience are fundamental to our physical health, our relationships, our education, our training, our work and to achieving our potential.
There is no health without mental health¹.
Let’s talk about you…
 As individuals we respond differently to daily stresses and strains of life, and to the more significant blows we are sometimes dealt.

 In the working age population as many as one in three people have mental health difficulties at any one time².
In 2013 stress, anxiety and depression resulted in 15.2 million days lost³ and the cost to British business was estimated to be £26 billion – that’s equivalent to £1035 per employee⁴. Can anyone afford that?
