Raising Awareness for Men’s Mental Health This November
04 11 24
The mental health of men across the UK deserves our attention, and awareness alone can save lives. 1 in 3 men in the UK have experienced suicidal thoughts as a result of feeling stressed (Mental Health Foundation). Stigma and societal expectations often keep men from reaching out, leading many to suffer in silence.
At Bedspace, we believe in creating a culture where everyone—no matter their gender—feels safe and supported to talk about their struggles. 🗣
Our commitment to mental wellbeing is for all staff. Wellbeing Champions are available for confidential conversations, and our Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) offer 24/7 support for anyone needing to talk, anytime. These resources are here for everyone in our organisation, and we encourage our workforce to use them freely. 📖
We’re also proud to highlight key mental health charities working to make a difference in our communities:
🧠 CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably): provides life-saving helplines and resources.
🧠 Mind : supports mental health services and promotes positive change.
🧠 Samaritans: available 24/7 for those in crisis.
🧠 Movember Foundation: raises awareness and funds for men’s mental health.
At Bedspace, we are dedicated to supporting the wellbeing of all. Together, let’s ensure everyone feels heard, supported, and valued.
