In honour of World Mental Health Day we have pulled together some of our top tips for maintaining mental wellbeing in the workplace....

Our toolbox talk, our take five, the pre or post task brief (whatever you wish to call it) has been drawn up to encourage you, us and everybody to simply talk.

Set aside some time, have a brew with your team and run through it. The only way to tackle the stigma surrounding mental health conditions is to make it part of the norm. Let people see that its ok not to be ok all of the time, and that there are things that can be done to tackle those niggling feelings or thoughts. Be that through changes at work or at home.

We have aimed our Tool Box Talk at maintaining Mental Wellbeing at work and controlling Work Related Stress, but the reality is, it can be used anywhere. Mental health conditions can affect us any time and any place. Perhaps through taking 5 we'll all find a new strategy, or identify some gaps to fill, in which we can learn from or pass on to others.

Our Toolbox Talk is available for download by clicking the link. Save a copy locally and for real impact why not include details of your own management strategies, plans or support networks?

Lets all do something today, and everyday, to try and improve things.
