Frequently asked questions
- Is there a theme?
- The theme for 2020’s World Mental Health Day is ‘Greater Investment – Greater Accesses. Everyone, everywhere. ’ It demonstrates how important it is to widen access and participation to mental health for all people, no matter who they are or where they are.
- What are we offering?
- We are offering a range of digital assets this year to help raise awareness around mental health, as well as our physical Green Ribbons and Green Ribbon pin badges. Whether you want to take part in one activity, or encourage your employees to participate in a number, we have a variety of different options available to help you mark World Mental Health Day 2020 on 10 October.
- How do I get involved?
- Simply download the resources that you would like to use from our Green Ribbon website. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to take part in the campaign online, so you can also download Green Ribbon toolkit with further instructions on how to plan and share your campaign with your networks and colleagues, and support one another to #endthestigma.
- Why do you need my details to download the digital resources?
- We ask for your details so that we're able to measure the impact of the virtual campaign by tracking the number of downloads, and to stay in touch with you about future campaigns. We understood from our May campaign that the download process was arduous, so we will be making amendments to the system in preparation for our 2021 campaigns.
- Is there a cost?
- You are welcome to donate to The Lord Mayor’s Appeal if you’d like to raise money to help #endthestigma, though the campaign’s primary aim is to raise awareness around mental health.
