World Mental Health Day 2025

Today marks World Mental Health Day. A global reminder that mental health is as important as physical health. This year’s theme is ‘access to services - mental health in catastrophes and emergencies’. The theme highlights the importance of people being able to protect their mental health in times of global instability.

Looking after our wellbeing isn’t a one-day activity. Whether it’s checking in with a colleague, taking a mindful break, or reaching out for support, small steps make a big difference.

If you or someone you know needs support or wants to learn more about mental wellbeing, here are some helpful resources:

• Mental Health Foundation – https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/explore-mental-health/get-help
• Employee Assistance Programme – Call 0800 247 1100 for free 24/7
• Samaritans – free, confidential support 24/7 at 116 123

Let’s take today as a reminder to talk, listen, and look after ourselves and each other.
