The Impact Awards celebrate our Supporter's efforts to improve mental health and wellbeing. They aim to identify and recognise employers’ good practice in mental health and wellbeing, gathering examples that can be shared with others. The Awards highlight the range of approaches that employers can take to bring about improved awareness and understanding of mental health and wellbeing across their workforces, regardless of the size of their organisation. 2019 Award categories The Impact Awards will recognise ‘Winners’ as well as ‘Highly Commended’ applicants, with employer categories including: larger organisations (greater than 250 employees) and SMEs (less than 250 employees).
