We have an incredible team at St. George’s Park and many of you won’t see all the work that goes on behind the scenes.
So ahead of tomorrow’s World Mental Health Day, and its theme of prioritising mental health in the workplace, I gave out a few notes to tell some of the team here how much they’re appreciated.
Through my work with the Harry Kane Foundation, we know it’s so important to connect with others, and little acts can sometimes make a big difference.

People need mental health support now. Not in 6 months. #WorldMentalHealthDay
ALT A text message conversation between a person and "Mental Health Services." The person says, “hi, I’m not doing very well, can you help me?” The response from Mental Health Services reads, “All our services are full. Someone will get back to you soon.” The timestamp shows the message was sent on 1st September 2023 at 18:17.
Well deserved appreciation post for Hans and all the team at @blendandroast Lea Bridge Library. They were brilliant at catering for our Wellbeing Cafe based out of the library over the last few months. Be sure to check them out for a brilliant space and excellent coffee!

Every year over 700,000 people die by suicide.
This needs to change, and it starts by changing the narrative.
We need to replace silence and stigma with openness and support, and we can do this by beginning a conversation today.
