Today is World Mental Health Day! And in support of the day, GB Lubricants’ Mental Health First Aiders have taken over notice boards on site this week to promote prioritising your mental health. After introducing the support structure last year, the team at GB have hosted a wear it green day, where they took part in a green-themed bake-off and other fun activities; they raised £133 in aid of the Mental Health Foundation.
This year’s theme for World Mental Health Day is to acknowledge the importance of good mental health in the workplace, and the team at GB Lubricants is committed to promoting this.
One of GB Lubricants’ mental health first aiders, Beth Burnett, said,” We are privileged to contribute to a workplace where mental health and wellbeing are prioritised. As mental health first aiders, our role goes beyond just offering immediate support, it’s about fostering a culture of empathy and understanding. We are committed to creating a safe, supportive environment where all staff feel heard and valued, without fear of judgement.”
