Wellbeing Team

Mental Health Awareness Month

For those of you who are not aware, the month of October is Mental Heath Awareness Month.

As part of Mental Health Awareness Month, the Wellbeing team have put up an 'Appreciation Station' in the staffroom. On each table there is a box with gratitude slips, pens and pegs for staff to contribute to the wall. 

Studies have found that a single act of thoughtful gratitude produces an immediate 10% increase in happiness.

“Enjoy the little things. For one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.” -Robert Brault

We are grateful for the wonderful staff who take care of others so well.

In the spirit of this, not only this month but every month, remember to take care of yourself.
