This year we have rolled out a range of services aimed at improving the wellbeing of colleagues. Here is a round-up from June with links to the various resources on offer.
Men’s Health Week 14-20 June
Everybody’s mental health has been challenged by the lockdowns and insecurities of the last year and it’s not over. As we emerge from what we hope will be the worst of the pandemic, questions, concerns and anxieties remain. Men’s Health Week 2021 (14-20 June) asked: how do we move forward?
The aim of Men’s Health Week is to give all men and boys, particularly those in the most disadvantaged areas and communities, the information, services and treatment they need to live healthier, longer and more fulfilling lives. Each year, MHW focuses on a different theme – in 2020, the aim was to raise awareness of how men are being disproportionately impacted by Covid-19, and in 2021, this theme is continuing with a campaign for awareness of men’s mental health in the era of Covid-19.
