Good mental health is only possible when we have access to the key building blocks of mental health.
One of the first steps in promoting good mental health is raising awareness and breaking the stigma. Education is key to challenging misconceptions and promoting understanding and compassion. By encouraging conversations about mental health, people are more likely to seek help.
Ensuring access to mental health services is so important in supporting individuals. The UK Government has made significant investments in mental health services, aiming to reduce waiting times and expanding access to counselling and therapy.
We all need to work together to make this happen. I am pleased to support the Mental Health Foundation's work. You can learn more about their campaigns by logging on to www.mentalhealth.org.uk
