*BIT OF A RANT*
So, around 800,000 people kill themselves every year.
When will organisations take mental health seriously enough without the ROI question?
I spoke to a company just before lockdown regarding their MH strategy for their employees and they advised me that they do Mental Health Awareness Day every year.
1 flipping day a year.
Quite frankly, that is not enough, it doesn't even get on the graph in my opinion. If we want these numbers to decrease then big action, huge steps need to be made.
The ROI is very clear - for every £1 you spend on Mental Health Awareness your return is £5. Now quit with the tick box exercises and make a change, a big change.
