Mental Health Awareness Week (18-24 May 2020)
This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is focused on kindness. Feel free to use our resources during the week, including an article, social media images and new top tips for sleep. We are also encouraging people to share, on social media, the moments in their legal career when someone showed them kindness, using #momentofkindness and tagging us in. We will be running a webinar on 20 May, 10.30 – 11.30 am, with Simon Davis, President of the Law Society of England & Wales, exploring leadership, practical tips for firms and why looking after your mental health right now is so important. Details soon on our website. We will also be releasing a podcast on the biological case for kindness in the workplace, with a leading neuroscientist in conversation with one of our champions.
