Facebook Twitter Pinterest Lauren Phillips died when she was 26 and working as a junior doctor. Then there were lectures and roleplay sessions about coping with stress and talking about mental health and suicide. There has been an increase in media coverage of mental health issues in the past 12-18 months. Royals, athletes and celebrities have spoken openly and frankly about their struggles with mental health, which has helped to raise awareness and reduce stigma. In my trust, World Mental Health Day is being marked with talks, stands and people who can tell employees what help is available locally and nationally to maintain their mental health.
