empower others to achieve greatness.โ€

This year, the Caregiver Action Network (CAN) has introduced the theme โ€œPlug-in to Careโ€, encouraging caregivers to connect with the right resources, at the right time, in the right way.

In the UK, around 6.5 million peopleโ€”1 in 8 adultsโ€”provide unpaid care for a loved one. Of these, 1.4 million dedicate over 50 hours each week to caregiving. This includes young carers: children who take on the responsibility of supporting a relative.

The purpose of Family Caregivers Month is to:
โ€ข Raise awareness of caregiver issues
โ€ข Celebrate the dedication of unpaid carers
โ€ข Alleviate feelings of isolation among caregivers
โ€ข Educate caregivers about self-identification
โ€ข Increase support for family carers

Support can come in many formsโ€”practical, financial, and emotional. Helpful resources include:

โ€ข Carers UK

Letโ€™s take this opportunity to acknowledge caregivers and ensure they feel seen, supported, and empowered.

Today we're celebrating Mental Health First Aider Day!

Mental health touches all of us, and we're incredibly proud of the Mental Health First Aiders at Elysium Healthcare who are working to break down stigma and support their colleagues.

We sat down with three of our MHFAs to hear their stories, and what they shared was truly inspiring:

"Years ago, you'd feel like if I speak up, it looks like I can't do my job. Now I can say how I feel and not be worried to talk about it." - Sharon Gibbons, Wellbeing Administrator.

One of the biggest surprises? The training taught them just as much about looking after themselves as it did about supporting others. From recognising burnout to understanding it's OK to ask for help, our MHFAs learned valuable lessons they're now sharing with colleagues.

As Tess Whittle puts it: "It's not just about looking after other people; it's another way of being able to look after yourself."

Their message to anyone considering becoming a Mental Health First Aider? Just do it.

What a celebration!

Our Braeburn House team marked Black History Month with an incredible day of food, music, culture, and connection. This year's theme 'Standing Firm in Power and Pride' really came to life!

The menu included jollof rice, jerk chicken, Sadza with oxtail stew, and more delicious dishes from across Africa, the Caribbean, and beyond. Service users became DJs playing Afrobeats, and everyone enjoyed trying on cultural dress and sharing stories.

Ward Manager Nkoyo Shadracks said: "We are stronger in diversity. This was a great chance to get to know and understand each other better. It was a really warm and engaging event."

Itโ€™s International Stress Awareness Week!

This yearโ€™s theme is all about workplace culture, and how creating environments that foster growth, support, recognition, and psychological safety isnโ€™t just helpful, itโ€™s vital.

Stress affects so many of us, and it can stem from financial worries, health concerns, discrimination, and more. Left unchecked, it can lead to anxiety, depression, sleep issues, even physical illness.

This week is a chance to:

- Talk openly about stress
- Break down stigma around mental health
- Promote wellbeing at work and beyond

Letโ€™s work together to make mental health a priority, for ourselves, our colleagues, and our communities.

This Black History Month, we're celebrating with the theme 'Your Site, Your Celebration โ€“ How Will You Stand Firm'.

Abdul Abubakar, Co-Chair of our Beyond Differences Employee Resource Group, tells us how teams across Elysium are marking this important month:
"We want to go beyond historical; we want to live in the moment. We're encouraging sites to reflect, action and recognise and be actively involved in cultural celebrations."

Our services are hosting cultural celebrations, sharing international cuisine, and most importantly - celebrating the stories of Black excellence from colleagues across our organisation.
"Ultimately we want to share stories of black excellence in our workplaces, to celebrate our cultural diversity and learn, have fun and recognise our colleagues."
