“One in four of us will experience a mental health problem every year – that means that, right now, one of your friends, colleagues or loved ones is going through it. But too many people with mental health problems are made to feel worthless or isolated. The way you act towards someone with a mental illness can change their life: by opening up to mental health you can make a real difference.” The Time to Change website.
Time to Change is a growing movement of people dedicated to changing how we all think and act about mental health. The campaign is funded by Department of Health, Comic Relief and the Big Lottery Fund and run by Mind and Rethink Mental Illness. Since Time to Change launched in 2007, 3.4 million adults in England have improved attitudes towards mental health problems – that’s an improvement of 8.3% between 2008 and 2014.
Mutual Ventures are delighted to sign the Time to Change pledge and commit to raising awareness of mental health at work.
