Employers pledge to end mental health stigma

Second Step is one of more than a dozen Bristol employers who signed a pledge to tackle mental health stigma in their organisations.

Marking yesterday’s Time to Talk Day, Second Step joined a number of other organisations including the Bristol City Council in becoming a Time to Change Employer. The city council’s aim is for all businesses in the city to sign up to the pledge by 2033.

Time to Change is run by the charities Mind and Rethink Mental Illness and the campaign aims to end mental health discrimination.

Across the country more than 1,000 employers have signed up so far. Follow this link to the story in the Bristol Post.
