A mentally healthy workplace is one which is seen as a happy
friendly place to work, values individual and team creativity and
new ideas, has high productivity level and is efficient, and is
open to discussions about mental health issues. It is the aim of
Helena Partnerships to support colleagues and job applicants who
have or are experiencing harmful levels of stress, depression,
anxiety and other mental health problems.
