"Firstly a very big thank you for becoming mental health aware! One in four of us will experience poor mental health at some point in our lives, this means that a lot of people will have mental health challenges. And on top of this, we connect with hundreds, if not thousands of others through the course of our work, home or leisure activities, which makes having a basic understanding of mental health, and how to help and support others, even more important. Stigma can also often be seen as a significant barrier to acknowledging poor mental health and receiving the treatment and support people need too, but by reading this, and learning more about mental health, you are taking the first step in understanding and improving your own mental wellbeing, as well as the wellbeing of others around you, and together we can start to make positive changes to conversations around mental health!"
