Time to Change mental health initiative and staff champion to be adopted by Newark and Sherwood District Council

A mental health initiative and staff champion are to be adopted by Newark and Sherwood District Council.

Time to Change ­— a growing mental health social movement ­— is a pledge signed by organisations, which works to change the way people think about mental wellbeing.

A meeting of the district council voted in favour of the scheme, which is led by mental health charities Mind and Rethink Mental Illness, with two abstentions.
