Mental Health Awareness Week is run by the Mental Health Foundation, and this year it takes place from 13 May – 19 May 2024.  The theme is Movement: Moving more for our mental health.

Movement is a great way to enhance our all-round wellbeing. Just 10 minutes of  walking can boost our mood and increase our mental wellbeing. Research has shown that regular physical activity can make us happier and healthier. Our bodies release feel-good hormones when we're active, which can reduce anxiety and stress and help us sleep better.​ By implementing movement into our day, we can have a positive impact on our productivity and all-round wellbeing.
