World Mental Health Day

Mental Health problems can affect anyone, any day of the year, but October is a great month to show your support for better mental health and start looking after your own wellbeing.

World Mental Health Day 2020 is the most important one yet. The months of lockdown and loss have had a huge impact on us all, and prioritising mental health has never been more important than it is now.

That’s why this year Mind, an amazing Mental Health charity, want to bring everyone together to mark the day by each doing one thing for better mental health.

Making positive change can seem so hard, especially during uncertain times. And sometimes, it can be hard to know where to start. Take the opportunity this World Mental Health Day to find out more about how you can start with one thing.

Our mental health is just like our physical health: everybody has it and we need to take care of it.

Mental health problems affect around one in four people in any given year. They range from common problems, such as depression and anxiety, to rarer problems such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
