10 October 2024

10 October 2024 is World Mental Health Day. This year’s theme is focused on 'Workplace Mental Health'. 


The theme highlights the importance of addressing mental health and wellbeing in the workplace, for the benefit of people, organisations, and communities.

Talking about our mental health can help us cope better with life’s ups and downs. So, on World Mental Health Day and beyond it, why not check in with your friends, family, peers, or colleagues?

Knowing what support is available and where to signpost colleagues to is really important, so our Public Health team have put together a World Mental Health Day toolkit which you can use, download and share. If you would like free physical resources for your workplace, please complete the order form.

There are also training opportunities to find out more about mental health and how to help others.

And there's a guide for managers to find out how to support their team by having conversations about mental health.

Don't forget that colleagues from the Live Life Better Derbyshire team will be in reception at County Hall between 11am and 2pm today, offering blood pressure checks and mental health and suicide prevention information for all visitors and colleagues.
