Mental Health Awareness Week 11-17 May

Since 2001, the Mental Health Foundation has led Mental Health Awareness Week, bringing people across the UK together to focus on achieving and maintaining good mental health.

Every May, millions of people from all walks of life take part in raising awareness and supporting one another.

Here at Fuel Storage Solutions, supporting the wellbeing of our team is a priority. We are fortunate to have an in-house Mental Health First Aider, Mel Alders, whose day-to-day role is within our Finance Team.

Mel volunteered for the role and completed a two-day training course, giving her a greater understanding of the complexities surrounding mental health. As well as offering a listening ear, she can help guide colleagues towards additional support — from courses designed to strengthen coping mechanisms to professional organisations equipped to help with specific situations.

Our support of Mental Health Awareness Week reflects our ongoing commitment to creating a supportive and caring workplace for all.
