World Mental Health Day–10 October 2025

Poor mental health is not inevitable, and World Mental Health Day is an opportunity for us all to talk about mental health and consider how, together, we can help everyone have better mental health.

This year’s theme set by the World Federation for Mental Health is access to services - mental health in catastrophes and emergencies. The theme highlights the importance of people being able to protect their mental health whatever they're going through, because everyone deserves good mental health.

The theme focuses on raising awareness, reducing stigma, and ensuring mental health support is accessible for everyone, everywhere.

The day serves as a prompt to encourage us all to check in with ourselves and those around us and to remind ourselves of the resources and support that are available to us in the UK.
