Here are some of the opportunities coming up in October to help us all reflect on our health and wellbeing.
World Mental Health Day – 10 October
World Mental Health Day is an opportunity to pause, reflect and prioritise our mental wellbeing. Whether you are looking for support, advice, or simply a reminder to check in with yourself and others, a range of health and wellbeing resources are available, including details of our Mental Health First Aider (MHFA) service.
Pause. Connect. Care.
World Menopause Awareness Day – 18 October
World Menopause Awareness Day shines a light on menopause and the impact it can have on many women’s lives. It is an opportunity to raise awareness, encourage open and supportive conversations, and help ensure women feel informed, understood, and empowered throughout every stage of their menopause journey.
Discover. Understand. Support.
