Last week, The Better Health Generation attended the CIPD Scotland Conference, connecting with HR leaders, employers, and business owners to highlight the importance of workplace mental health support across Scotland.
Representing the organisation at the event were Andy Milne and Chris Martin, bringing attention to the Access to Work Mental Health Support Service, delivered in partnership with Able Futures.
Supporting Workplace Mental Health Across Scotland
The Access to Work Mental Health Support Service is a fully funded programme designed specifically for SMEs and self-employed individuals in Scotland. It provides practical support for common work-related mental health challenges, including:
- Stress
- Anxiety
- Low mood
- Burnout
With increasing focus on employee wellbeing, workplace productivity, and mental health at work, the programme helps businesses build healthier, more resilient teams while supporting individuals to remain in and thrive at work.
Expert, Confidential Mental Health Support
Through the service, participants receive confidential, one-to-one support from qualified professionals, including:
- Mental Health Nurses
- Occupational Therapists
- Counsellors
This personalised approach ensures individuals receive the right level of support to improve their mental wellbeing, enhance performance, and maintain long-term employment.
