Time to Talk Day is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation. Happening every year, it’s a day for friends, families, communities, and workplaces to come together to talk, listen and change lives.
On Thursday 2 February, we’re asking you to make space in your day for a conversation about mental health.
Here’s how you can get involved:
Many people experience a mental health problem, so if someone says they’re fine, they might not be. A second ‘how are you?’ can make all the difference.
Many people use art and illustration as a way of expressing their own experience of mental health. Why not try it and share it with someone or on social media?
Talk to our friendly volunteers who’ll be based at The Broadway shopping centre in Bradford city centre from 10am until 4pm. Find out about our mental health services where talking is an important part of wellbeing and recovery. You can also find out how you can get involved with your local mental health charity.
Talking about mental health while doing an activity may feel less pressured, like going for a walk or for a coffee. Drop a text to a friend you haven’t heard from recently and set something up.
Get people thinking and talking about mental health problems by running a quiz at your organisation, school or community group.
Here’s a true or false quiz you could use:
Set-up a Tea and Talk event on Time to Talk Day. A perfect opportunity to get to know people in your organisation and encourage conversations about mental health.
