Time to Talk Day 2025: promoting mental health and wellbeing in the workplace

On 6 February, our Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP) marked Time to Talk Day.

This annual national campaign encourages friends, families, communities and workplaces to come together, talk, listen and help change lives by breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health.

To support this important initiative, our Mental Health Improvement Team hosted a drop-in event at Commonwealth House in the city centre, inviting colleagues to take some time out of their day to relax, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and have an open chat about mental health.
