Mental Health Awareness Week 2025 is the perfect opportunity for organisations to strengthen their workplace communities, encourage open conversations, and show commitment to employee well-being.
At OpenUp, we believe small, meaningful actions by managers and teams can lead to real, lasting change. To help you get started, we’ve created a free Mental Health Awareness Toolkit you can use throughout the week and beyond.
What’s in the Mental Health Awareness Toolkit?
We’ve designed this toolkit to make it easy for organisations to participate in Mental Health Awareness Week 2025, whether you have a full programme planned or want to start with just one conversation.

Why Awareness for Mental Health Matters for Organisations
Supporting mental well-being at work isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s an essential part of building fair, inclusive, and resilient workplaces.
At OpenUp, our research shows:
- 81% of employees don’t feel comfortable discussing mental health with their manager.
- 95% of managers say they would benefit from more support around mental well-being.
Mental Health Awareness Week 2025 is your opportunity to close this gap, and our free toolkit can help. This year, the week takes place from 19 to 25 May 2025 and the theme is ‘community’.
