Mental Health Advocates
As part of our Minds Matter programme, 44 partners and senior support professionals from across our global network have been appointed as Mental Health Advocates.
Their role is to promote positive mental health and foster a culture of support at A&O.
These 44 partners and senior support professionals are responsible for championing the three pillars of our strategy: developing a culture where we can discuss our mental health and that of those close to us; ensuring support is available to those who need it; and promoting working practices which support positive mental health for all, for example encouraging the use of iFlex.
Most offices have a mental health advocate and, in our London office, there is one for each department. The advocates are supported by HR and will attend mental health awareness training.
