Prioritising Wellbeing This Time to Talk Day

With help from our internal Mental Health First Aiders, Aimee Burman and Kayleigh Johnson, we are marking Time to Talk Day 2023 with an employee wellbeing drop-in session.

Spurring the nation’s biggest mental health conversation, Mind and Rethink Mental Illness’ Time to Talk Day happens every year and sees friends, families, colleagues and strangers come together for a chat about just about anything.

“The ‘Time to Talk Day’ website says, “Make space in your day for a conversation about mental health”, and that’s exactly what we’re doing,” said HR & Payroll Coordinator, Aimee.

“Some people might not feel comfortable enough to strike up that initial conversation so we’re removing that barrier.”

Research reveals that 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem in any given year. We prioritise employees’ wellbeing, providing a library of resources including auto-enrolment into the Health Assured Employee Assistance Programme, regular communication about free national and local support, and access to a modern on-site gym.

“It’s important that our teams know that we’re here for them, not just today but whenever they might need somebody to talk to,” said Aimee.
