To mark Stress Awareness Month, our internal colleague network, Mind Matters, hosted a relaxed, in‑person drop‑in wellbeing event at our office in Edinburgh. The event created space for journaling and reflection, mindfulness, breathing and grounding techniques that can be used day to day, light movement and meaningful conversations, helping to encourage colleagues to slow down and connect. Our Mind Matters Co‑Chairs, David Lavender, David Walker (Cert CII FS) spec.cert (conduct risk) and Rebecca Addison along with some of their committee members were offering support and conversation to help raise awareness and promote positive mental health. #StressAwarenessMonth #BeTheChange
