 <\/p>\n

World Mental Health Day is the annual global celebration of mental health education, awareness and advocacy.<\/h2>\n
Every year – on 10 October – we join together in shining the spotlight on a particular aspect of mental ill health. The theme for 2015 is Dignity in Mental Health.<\/div>\n

To mark this year’s day Sheffield Hallam will have\u00a0a stall on Level 2 of the Atrium, City Campus on Thursday 8 October from 10-3pm\u00a0where students\u00a0can\u00a0pick up information and chat\u00a0about all aspects of mental health\u00a0with SHU staff . Local organisations such as Sheffield Alcohol Services will also be on hand.\u00a0\u00a0Our famous smoothie bike will also be available if you fancy having a go at making your own smoothie.<\/p>\n

At Sheffield Hallam\u00a0we’re keen to raise awareness of the issues and stigma\u00a0often associated with mental ill health\u00a0and to promote positive mental health for all students and staff.\u00a0\u00a0To that end we’re involved in a number of initiatives that promote positive change around mental health, and\u00a0last October the\u00a0University and\u00a0Hallam Students Union signed up to the Time\u00a0to Change Pledge which is a national campaign that seeks to end mental health discrimination.\u00a0\u00a0We also\u00a0regularly team up with Sheffield\u00a0organisations such\u00a0as\u00a0Sheffield Mind and get involved in city-wide events and activities that promote positive mental health and wellbeing across the city.<\/p>\n

Sheffield Mental Health Week runs from 5 – 11 October<\/strong>\u00a0where you can get involved\u00a0in a range of activities exploring mental health across the city. Check out the programme link for full details.<\/p>\n
