As part of World Mental Health Day on Monday 10 October, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) launched its latest 'Every Mind Matters' campaign. The campaign calls on people to do small things which can make a big difference to their mental wellbeing and directs them to free tips and advice.
By answering 5 simple questions through the 'Every Mind Matters' website, people can get a personalised ‘Mind Plan’ giving them tips to help deal with stress and anxiety, boost their mood, sleep better and feel more in control.
Richard Fuller MP said:
The Secretary of State for Health's focus is on making sure people can get the care they need, when they need it – and that includes for their mental wellbeing.
The 'Every Mind Matters' tool is a great way to build your mental resilience and help ward off anxiety.
Preventing people’s mental health from deteriorating is a key part of the government’s Plan for Patients, supporting people to stay well and stay within the community.
Over 4 million Mind Plans have been created since the campaign first launched in October 2019 and the 'Every Mind Matters' website provides a range of other resources, as well as dedicated support to help parents and guardians look after the mental wellbeing of the children and young people they care for.
Visit the 'Every Mind Matters' website and take the free, Mind Plan quiz to get a personalised mental health action plan with practical tips to help you deal with stress, anxiety, low mood and trouble sleeping.
