Make Mental Health a Priority

There are nearly one billion people worldwide who suffer from mental disorders. There is a stigma surrounding mental health making it difficult to speak up and seek help.

Covid 19 has been a huge impact on people`s mental health all around the world. Within the first year of Covid-19, there has been a 25% increase in anxiety and depression worldwide.

Not being able to leave the house to socialise with friends, working from home, and being unable to interact face-to-face with extended family has created an environment that allowed mental health issues to enter people’s lives. During this period, health services have been disrupted, resulting in a widening treatment gap for mental health conditions.
