Mental Health Awareness Week

Mental health issues can impact any of us, at any time. The last few years have been especially tough on lots of us. Many suffer in silence, and stigma is sadly still attached to mental health problems.

Our postmen and women connect with the nation day in, day out and are key figures in our customers’ lives.

Support

If you don’t feel yourself, or someone you know doesn’t seem themselves, take action and speak up. Family, friends, and colleagues are there to support you.

Help in a crisis

If life is at risk, call 999 or go to the nearest Accident and Emergency (A&E) department.

Or you can:

Call or text a helpline
ask your GP for an emergency appointment
call 111 out of hours
contact a mental health crisis team if you have one.

The NHS has urgent mental health helplines and text lines.
