How To Support Others
Supporting Others
When someone you care about is struggling with their mental wellbeing, whether it’s a family member, friend, or colleague, it can be hard to know what to say or do. You may worry about saying the wrong thing or feel unsure about how to help without overstepping. The good news is that small, compassionate actions can make a big difference. Sometimes it’s as simple as listening without judgement, encouraging them to seek professional help, or checking in regularly to remind them they’re not alone.We’ve created two free, practical guides to help you feel more confident when supporting others:
- Supporting a Family Member – tips on having open conversations, recognising signs of distress, and looking after yourself while caring for someone else.
- Supporting a Colleague – advice on approaching conversations at work, maintaining healthy boundaries, and signposting to the right resources.
