We are pleased to be working in partnership with Mind on its mental health support hub and website, Blue Light Together, alongside three other leading charities.
Blue Light Together has a range of valuable resources around mental health available, specifically designed for people working and volunteering in emergency services, as well as their friends and family.
We worked in partnership with Mind, as well as The Royal Foundation, The Ambulance Staff Charity and Police Care UK on the website, which includes specialised information and advice to help emergency responders with their mental health, real life stories and tips from colleagues working in the field, as well as guides for employers so that they can support their teams with their wellbeing.
All five charities understand the huge toll the pandemic has had on emergency services, particularly when it comes to mental health, so finding the right support at the right time has never been more important.
Any fire and rescue service personnel accessing the site can then receive further and specific support from us, as the UK’s leading provider of health and wellbeing services for the fire services community. We are here for you, when you need it most.
You can visit Blue Light Together now to browse specialised information, tips from fellow emergency responders, and handy support guides for employers, specifically designed for you.
Remember, if you’re struggling with your health and wellbeing, we may be able to help you. Call our Support Line on 0800 389 8820, make an enquiry online or visit the ‘Access Support’ tab in MyFFC.
