Business
Manchester Mind is a fantastic local charity delivering a wide range of services to support people’s mental health. Last year they provided support, information and training to over 5,000 people.
Prioritising mental health is important to us as individuals, but it’s also good for business.

Supporting our employees to be happy and healthy helps us to pull together as a team to deliver innovative solutions and a better service to our customers worldwide.
