Supporting employees this Mental Health Awareness week and improving well-being

Monday 13th May 2019 see’s the start of International Mental Health Awareness week. We think this is an important week for employers here on the Wirral and in Merseyside as according to the Centre for Mental Health one in six workers will experience depression, anxiety or problems relating to stress at any one time. They estimate the cost to UK businesses is nearly £26 billion per year which is the equivalent to £1,035 for every employee in the UK workforce.
We are working with employers to support their staff to improve their wellbeing whilst also reducing the potential cost of staff absence and improving staff retention, morale and productivity. To do this, and mark Mental Health Awareness week, we are launching a new service at our special pop-up location in Birkenhead market throughout the week.
The service is called The Life Garage and we’re hoping it will help opening up life coaching for wellbeing to people who wouldn’t normally access support for their mental health and wellbeing.
Throughout the week people will be able to get life MOTs, services (life coaching) and attend our unique workshops with a whopping 50% discount. We hope that together we can improve wellbeing on the Wirral whilst at the same time making a boost to the local economy.
