Did you know that in the UK alone, 1 in 5 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week? Additionally, a HSE Report cites that approximately 16.4 million working days were lost in 2023/24 due to work-related stress, depression, or anxiety. Furthermore, better mental health support at work can save UK businesses up to 8 billion annually.
How can you make a meaningful change happen in your workplace? The good news is, it can start with just one person, no matter your level of seniority, and here’s how you can get started.
Are you struggling to find a sense of balance in life? If so, you’re not alone.

The study also reveals that two thirds of UK employees (66%) feel that work-life balance is a crucial consideration when applying for a job.
