We are delighted to announce that Billi UK Limited have selected Mental Health Foundation as our first corporate charity partner for 2020. Previously, we have raised funds on a quarterly basis for a variety of local and national charities.
This year-long charity partnership supports our commitment to help improve mental wellbeing for our colleagues and our customer base.
Mental health is something we all have. One in six UK adults experiences the symptoms of a common mental health problem every week. This can impact on their ability to sustain relationships, work or just get through the day.
Emma Flack, Marketing Manager at Billi UK, said:
“We are proud to be partnering with the Mental Health Foundation and supporting its important work. We know first-hand that mental health affects everyone and we hope that by getting involved, we can help increase understanding of mental health and start to address some of the stigma associated with it. We aim to raise vital funds for the Foundation throughout the year, via several charity events and internal focus groups.”
Chris O’Sullivan, Head of Corporate Partnerships at Mental Health Foundation said:
“We’re delighted that Billi have selected us as their charity partner for 2020. It’s wonderful to have corporate fundraisers’ support for our work. It is also a great opportunity to enable discussions about mental health and wellbeing at work. We’re looking forward to working with the team in the coming year.”
Who is Mental Health Foundation?
The Mental Health Foundation works across the UK, with a vision for good mental health for all. MHF focuses on prevention in mental health, which means helping individuals, communities and organisations to do more of the things that are good for mental health, and less of the things that put mental health at risk. Each May, MHF sets the theme for Mental Health Awareness Week, which for 2020 is sleep.
