Mental Health Awareness Week 2020

Yesterday marked the start of Mental Health Awareness week (18th-24th May 2020), and the theme for this year is kindness.

The Mental Health Foundation want to get the message out there to as many people as possible that kindness is good for our mental health and everyone around us.

The pandemic we’re in the middle of really does highlight how important our mental health is, spending most of your time inside your house and without seeing your friends and family is tough.

There has been some progress in the last few years and there is less stigma around talking about mental health issues but we still have more to do.
