Get ready for Time to Talk Day, this years Time to Talk Day will be on Thursday 4th February 2016. The aim of Time to Talk Day is to get as many people as possible across England talking about mental health. Join in and let’s get the nation talking about mental health to help end the misconceptions and stigma surrounding it. Mental health problems affect 1 in 4 people every year, yet too often people are afraid to talk about their experiences because they fear it will affect their jobs or relationships. That’s not right and it’s why we need your help to break the silence and end the stigma!

By joining together on Time to Talk Day, we can break the silence that often surrounds mental health, and show that talking about this once-taboo issue doesn’t need to be difficult. With tens of thousands of individuals and hundreds of organisations speaking out together at the same time, we can make a huge impact and show that it really is time to talk!

Talking about mental health doesn’t need to be difficult, order your Time to Talk Day pack and resources for everything you need to take part on the day. Packs and information available include:

• Friends and Family Pack
• Schools pack

• Community pack

Even if you cannot hold an event you can get involved in Time to Talk day online by using social media.
