Giving you the tools for better mental health
Mates In Mind
Mates in Mind is a charitable programme designed to improve and promote positive mental health in construction. The “Mates in Mind” programme is an industry wide initiative which was launched by the Health in Construction Leadership Group and supported by the British Safety Council to raise awareness and promote understanding about mental ill health in the construction industry. Their overall aim is to eradicate the ill health and disease caused by work-related activities, and this includes addressing mental health. They estimate that the number of deaths from suicide in the construction industry could be as high as 10 times more than those from fatal accidents at work. An important part of the Mates in Mind strategy is to provide training and information to employers to help them to address the issue of mental health amongst their employees.
