Time to Talk Day aims to encourage conversations about mental health. It was first launched in 2014 by Time to Change campaign to end mental health stigma and discrimination.

At KINTO, supporting our colleagues’ mental health wellbeing is a priority. We strive to create an environment where everyone feels heard, involved and happy.

Last year, in addition to our HR Business Partner, Hannah Lines, we appointed and trained 5 more Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAs) to raise awareness of mental health, increase confidence in dealing with mental health issues and be a point of contact for any employee who is experiencing emotional distress.

To celebrate Time to Talk Day and encourage conversations, we are organising an internal workshop over tea and biscuits throughout the day. We also asked each of our MHFAs to share why talking about mental health is so important and how it can support people in the workplace.
