Did you know that in 2024 in Great Britain, 776,000 workers were suffering with work related stress, depression or anxiety resulting in 16,400,000 working days lost?
Did you know that poor mental wellbeing costs UK businesses approximately £42 billion pounds each year through sickness absence, presenteeism, reduced productivity and staff turnover?
Did you know that approximately 75% of the UK’s workforce are parents or carers with 1 in 10 mums and 1 in 10 dads experiencing postnatal depression in the first year after the birth of their baby?
Mental health at work is a HUGE deal as it affects how we show up and do our jobs. However, not all employees feel comfortable talking about mental health at work and a lot of managers feel out of depth when supporting their teams with mental wellbeing. How does your organisation feel about these conversations?
Mental health conversations should be easier. People should be able to talk about how they are feeling without the fear of judgement or repercussions. Let’s support our teams to feel confident in reaching out to colleagues earlier so that we don’t wait until someone is at crisis point before we help.
Let’s change how we support parents at work so they don’t feel marginalised and everyone understands why some days may be harder than others, especially during pregnancy or in the first year after their baby arrives.
Let’s make our organisations inclusive for everyone where we feel safe and welcome, where everyone can thrive. We can help you do this.
Join us in our mission to improve knowledge on mental health and wellbeing at work. Afterall, your staff are your business, without them you wouldn’t have the business you have today.
What we do
All of our offerings can be tailored to meet the needs of your business and can be delivered at your office or online. If you like what you see, but think you need something a little different, speak to us, let’s work together to bring you what you need.
