National Mental Health Awareness Day

Company News04 October 2024

This year we have teamed up with charity Andy’s Man Club to help stamp out the stigma that still surrounds men's mental health and allow them to understand that #ItsOkayToTalk!

Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 54, and on average, one man takes his own life in the UK every two hours.

As part of our partnership with the charity, on Thursday 10th October 2024 our Area Sales Managers will host Trade Counter Events across the country, alongside Andy’s Man Club representatives, to raise awareness for National Mental Health Awareness Day and to spread the word about what Andy’s Man Club does, how they can help support men, and where their nearest support group is.

Luke Pykett, our Head of Brand Marketing, said: “Working closely with Andy’s Man Club has served as a stark reminder of how many of us either know someone who has lost their life due to mental health, or who has gone through a difficult situation.

“We hope our partnership will play an important part in breaking the stigma surrounding men’s mental health and remind installers we work with that they’re part of the wider Ideal family.”
