Mental health is one of the biggest factors affecting productivity and wellbeing in today’s workplace. In the UK, over 17 million working days are lost each year due to stress, depression, and anxiety, costing employers an estimated £56 billion annually (Deloitte, 2023).
When staff and managers aren’t equipped to recognise or respond to mental health challenges, stigma and misunderstanding can unintentionally take root—often making matters worse for those who are struggling.
At Mind in Somerset, we believe that supporting the wellbeing of your people is one of the most powerful ways to strengthen your organisation.
