The project, 'Hachette Minds', has been introduced as part of the company’s Wellbeing Network, first started in 2017. The resource has been developed from the Samaritans’ Wellbeing in the City toolkit.
Hachette Minds was officially launched with “Let’s Talk”, an exhibition of photographs by Charlie Clift and Kate Forrester at Carmelite House until 18th April.
“We recognise that everybody experiences challenges and everyone has mental health – it has been one of our key aims as a network to raise greater awareness, understanding and support for the mental and emotional wellbeing of all staff across Hachette UK. We have worked closely with the Samaritans, the Hachette UK board and all our network members and we are thrilled to launch Hachette Minds. It is our continued ambition of the network and the senior management at Hachette to build on this excellent resource, to prioritise the wellbeing of all our staff and to break through the stigma of sharing and discussing mental health openly and without prejudice.”
Sam Gale, corporate account manager at the Samaritans, added: “From working with the passionate Wellbeing Network over the past 18 months and attending various events at Carmelite House, it has been fantastic to see that mental health and emotional wellbeing is an important priority for the business.
“The award-winning toolkit brings Samaritans listening and wellbeing skills into the workplace through a set of bitesize e-learning resources. We hope this enables staff to feel more confident approaching someone who might be struggling and more able to look after their own wellbeing.”
