COVID-19 has impacted the whole country; for almost everyone, life has had to change fundamentally. Research shows that since the start of the pandemic there has been an increase in a range of mental health conditions for adults, from low wellbeing, sleep problems and anxiety to depression.
But there are things that people can do to support their mental health and wellbeing at this time.
On the 18th of January 2021, Public Health England launched their Better Health – Every Mind Matters campaign to support the nation’s mental wellbeing with the encouragement that “When things aren’t so good out there, make inside better”.
There are a wide range of campaign resources and tools that can be found here, as well as a Your Mind Plan quiz which provides tips and advice to support you with your mental health and wellbeing.
