World Mental Health Day: Time to Make Wellbeing a Global Priority
Every year on 10 October, the world comes together for World Mental Health Day. Since 1992, this day has been a powerful reminder to raise awareness and smash the stigma around mental health struggles. This year’s punchy theme is ‘Make mental health & wellbeing a global priority for all’.
Wear Green to Show You Care
Ready to back the cause? People across the UK are sporting 1 – the international symbol for mental health awareness. Snap yours on and jump on social media with the hashtag #pinitformentalhealth to shout out your support loud and clear.
Start Conversations, Save Lives
It’s more than just a ribbon. Spread the word to help crush the shame around mental health. Offer a listening ear to friends and family. Open up conversations that matter. And if you’re feeling generous, donate to charities like the 1 that fight on the front lines against mental health issues.
Why Talking Matters
World Mental Health Day is your cue to speak up about mental wellbeing. It’s a call to understand why looking after your mind is just as crucial as your body. And if you’re struggling, remember, help is out there – all you have to do is ask.
