In this episode of Yes to You, the Lifeways social care podcast, our host Paul is joined by Mark Spraggs, the Managing Director of Mental Health at Lifeways.
On the occasion of World Mental Heath Day, Mark talks about:
· how we still need to repeat that mental health is a universal human right
· why we need to talk about our own mental health a lot more
· the power and importance of having a life purpose
· occasions when we need to be more ‘interventionist’ while supporting others
· the potential for apps to support mental health
· the one sentence he'd like to tell the whole world about mental health
