In conjunction with the Mental Health Foundation’s Mental Health Awareness Week, Middlesex University presents a week-long programme of activities and talks to raise awareness of mental health issues.

The Mental Health Foundation states ‘Healthy and supportive relationships reduce the risk of mental ill-health. This Mental Health Awareness Week we are celebrating the connections, the relationships, the people in our lives that add to our wellbeing and protect and sustain our mental health. From family and friends, to colleagues and neighbours; taking notice of those connections that make you feel safe and supported.

At Middlesex University we support and actively promote this through our work and MDX Let’s Talk events and the many awareness weeks and days are on the national calendar. Middlesex University’s involvement is influential in a growing community of staff, students, partners and public who make vital contributions to the cultural and social wellbeing of the societies in which we live and work. Built upon the success of MDX Let’s Talk and Mental Health Awareness week 2015 we hope you enjoy these events for 2016.
