Lamp Business Club – March 2025
Wednesday 5th March 2025
12 until 2pm
Hastings Direct 1a St Georges Way, Leicester LE1 1SH
The voice of Mental Health Advocacy in the workplace across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland returns this March with Special Guest Speaker Alice Evans, Head of Service at Lamp.
Lamp’s Head of Service Alice Evans will be talking to our guests about the charity’s new Workplace Mental Health Advocacy sessions.
These sessions aim to create supportive environments, reduce stigma, and promote open conversations about mental health in professional settings. This initiative addresses a critical need, as mental health issues significantly impact the workplace. In the UK, an estimated 15% of working-age adults were reported to have a mental disorder in 2019. Additionally, poor mental health costs UK employers between £42 billion to £45 billion annually due to factors like presenteeism, sickness absence, and staff turnover. By providing these advocacy sessions, Lamp not only supports individual employees but also contributes to creating healthier, more productive workplaces.
If members would like to bring an additional staff member or guest to our March Business Club we would please ask that a minimum £10 donation is made via the link below to cover additional costs to the charity. Please include their name in the comments so we can match up guests to donations, thank you.
ALL MONEY RAISED FROM LAMP BUSINESS CLUB MEMBERSHIP AND ADDITIONAL DONATIONS GOES DIRECTLY TO SUPPORTING OUR INDEPENDENT COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH ADVOCACY ACROSS LEICESTER, LEICESTERSHIRE & RUTLAND.
