Healthwatch signs up to Time to Change mental health campaign
We are supporting mental health in the workplace. At our annual general meeting (AGM) n Sawtry last week, we gave our backing to the Time to Change campaign to end mental health stigma and discrimination.
Time to Change asks employers to change the way they think and act about mental health in the workplace.
Our Chair Val Moore told the AGM,
“We’re a responsible employer and care for the wellbeing of our fabulous team,”
“We want to do all we can to help break the silence and end the stigma around mental health.”
We are now one of over 1000 pledged employers who have signed up and created an action plan to help get our staff talking about mental health.
In order to sign the pledge, we had to write an action plan spelling out what we plans to do. As well as highlighting mental wellbeing at team meetings, we are appointing a staff member and a Director to champion mental health.
