Making mental health mainstream M


ental Health Awareness Week took place at the end of last month, and it was great to see so many initiatives and conversations taking place across the electrical industry. According to data from the Offi ce of National Statistics, the risk of suicide for those in the construction industry is 1.6 times higher than the national average.


The Electrical Industries Charity (EIC) provides free mental health support to tradespeople in the energy and electrical sector and their families. Its new, free- to-access online learning platform for students and apprentices, which is sponsored by NICEIC, provides a range of resources including mental health fi rst aid and awareness training, as well as suicide fi rst aid, which aims to educate participants of the warning signs of suicide and initial support that can be provided. Why not look into signing up to one of their sessions this Mental Health Month? www. electricalcharity.org/training
