Every year, Mental Health Awareness Week (MHAW) gives us the opportunity to talk about mental health issues openly, to signpost to sources of support and to help fight the stigma that surrounds it. This stigma can prevent people from seeking help. Each year, a different theme is chosen to focus our attention, and this year’s theme is kindness.
