‘MOVEMENT: MOVING MORE FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH’ IS THE THEME OF MENTAL HEALTH
AWARENESS WEEK 2024

Since 2001, the Mental Health Foundation has been leading Mental Health
Awareness Week - bringing together the UK to focus on getting good mental
health. Each May, millions of people from every part of society take part. They
include people in schools and further education; private, public and charity
sectors; families and individuals. 

Your donations help us continue to create this moment where we can all come
together to build a society with good mental health where everyone can thrive.

MOVING MORE IS GOOD FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH, SO WHAT'S STOPPING US?

Regular physical activity is known to improve mental health, quality of life,
and wellbeing. It also helps prevent and treat heart disease, stroke, diabetes,
and breast and colon cancer, and more. Despite these benefits being well
established, over a third of UK adults do not meet the recommended amount of
activity.

In our new report, we explore what’s stopping the UK population from being more
active, and what could help get people moving more for their mental health.

Read the report




WHY MOVEMENT?

One of the most important things we can do to help protect our mental health is
regular movement.

Our bodies and our minds are connected, so looking after ourselves physically
also helps us prevent problems with our mental health. Exercise releases “feel
good” hormones, that reduce feelings of stress and anger. It also helps us feel
better about our bodies. It can improve our sleep too. If it involves other
people, like being part of a team, a class or group we see regularly, that can
also boost our mental health.

Despite these benefits, so many of us struggle to move enough. We know there are
many different reasons for this, so this Mental Health Awareness Week we want to
help people to find moments for movement in their daily routines. 

Read more about why movement is this year's theme


Our Mental Health Awareness Week campaign is not an 'exercise' campaign. Please
always consult a healthcare or fitness professional if embarking on a new
fitness regime. 

While moving our bodies regularly is important for our mental health, we know
that for people with experience of eating disorders or exercise addiction, this
message might be triggering. Our goal with the campaign is to help people find
moments for movement to support good mental health and emotional calm. If you
are worried that you or someone you care about is exercising excessively or
causing harm, please visit BEAT for further information and support.
