MATES IN MIND
AACSS COMMITMENT TO MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT
Mates in Mind was established by the Health in Construction Leadership Group (HCLG) with the support of the British Safety Council in September, is a registered charity operating in the UK.
The concept was launched at the end of January 2017 at the HCLG’s 2nd Construction Summit.
Mates in mind aims to provide clear information to employers on available support and guidance on mental health, mental illness and mental wellbeing, and how to address within their organisations.
Mates in Mind helps make sense of options and provides support to employers. It does in partnership with leading charities and organisations such as Mind, Samaritans and Mental Health First Aid England.
Mates in Mind aims to:
- Raise awareness and understanding of mental health and mental ill-health
- Help people to understand how, when and where to get support
- Break the silence and stigma through promoting cultures of positive wellbeing throughout the industry.
AACSS are proud to be able to play a part in supporting such a vital charity when it comes to being able to openly talk about mental health and provide the support that may be required.
