How to launch Mental Health Awareness Week 2024

When is Mental Health Awareness Week 2024?

This year, Mental Health Awareness Week runs from 13th May to 19th May 2024.

Globally, the annual theme is ‘Anxiety’.

Why are employers getting involved?

It is important for all employers to actively support Mental Health Awareness Week, and work to reduce stigma & inequalities in the workplace.

Employers should spread the word about what they do and how they support people going through struggles.

Where do you start?

If you provide mental health support training for your management teams and employees, then it is likely you already have mental health champions in your workplace. If you don’t, find someone that is passionate and willing to take the lead on planning the week.

Plan a schedule of education, awareness and engagement events in your workplace.

Without an Occupational Health service, you might not have access to mental health specialists to deliver sessions.

You might want to consider accessing the support week from Occupational Health specialists, OH One. They offer a full week schedule of live online sessions your staff can attend - register early for fully-funded places for your business.
