World Health Day

World Mental Health Day is an annual awareness day observed every 10th October. Like most awareness days, weeks and months, it throws a spotlight on a topic of great importance. Everyone has mental health – it matters 365 days of the year, but the 10th October is a chance for everyone to unite across the globe to educate and raise awareness of mental health matters. It encourages everyone to look after their own mental health and those of others through greater understanding and empathy.

This year’s theme set by the World Federation for Mental Health is access to services - mental health in catastrophes and emergencies. The theme highlights the importance of people being able to protect their mental health whatever they're going through, because everyone deserves good mental health.

You can view mental health information and services on this site under the Mental Health Topic and reach out if you need support.
