Why is mental wellbeing important?

Mental wellbeing is the foundation for a positive outlook on life. Although it does not mean that we are happy all the time, it does mean that we are more resilient and able to cope with life’s ups and downs.

Evidence shows that there are five key elements which contribute to mental wellbeing. Here you can read about the Five Ways to Wellbeing and find further resources to help you improve your enjoyment of life and self-confidence.
