This is Me 2023 Autumn event

Join our morning event, kindly hosted by our friends at BNY Mellon in both London and Manchester. 

While we will recognise the statistic that one in four of us will experience a mental health concern in any given year, the reality is that it is more likely that all of us will engage or interact with someone who is struggling.

Many people are very skilled at masking the fact that they are struggling, and often someone’s likelihood of seeking appropriate support comes down to trust, and the environment and culture they are operating in.

The Lord Mayor’s Appeal This is Me Autumn event, supported by BNY Mellon, will explore how organisations can create psychologically safe workplaces that support the workforce to approach mental health in an open way.

Psychological safety is about creating a team environment that allows colleagues to speak up about fears, concerns, escalations and innovations; equally, it’s about creating a culture that welcomes hidden differences and encourages people to be their true authentic selves – together, these aspects contribute to a sense of belonging that ultimately contribute towards a team’s productivity.

This workshop will hear from speakers sharing both direct and indirect experiences of mental health and the insights they have gathered along the way, supported by roundtable discussions where peers from across the City and beyond to collaborate and to exchange best practice.
