It is Mental Health Awareness Week, and this week the team took part in some activities to support positive wellbeing:
Pick Your Plant Monday – every team member chose a desk plant to look after
Wear it Green – supporting the Mental Health Foundation
Lunchtime Nature Walk – with one simple rule: no phones allowed (except for our group photo!)
We chose these activities around what we believe are three important ways to support good mental health:
1. Be physically active
2. Get closer to nature
3. Manage technology use
A recent study shown that in 2025 one in five workers took time off sick due to poor mental health. It is so important to create a safe workplace where people feel comfortable having open conversations around wellbeing. At AWP, we’re committed to building positive team culture through regular wellbeing initiatives, the support of our in-office Mental Health First Aiders and access to confidential support services such as 24/7 counselling.
