Mental Wellbeing
Having good mental health allows us to cope with life's challenges. Make the most of your potential and play a full part in your family and work life. Remember we all struggle at times - its part of human nature.
1 in 4 of us is likely to experience a mental health issue at any 1 time and its okay to talk about this.
You can contact the Employee Assistance Programme for advice and support as well getting advice from the well online portal.
Looking after your mental health is just as important as your physical health and this guide gives helpful tips.
