Mental health Continued from page 46 The counselling service is free for tradespeople and their families They are: S – Support each other T – Talk about it A – Always ask twice T – Take it seriously S – Stop the cycle Keeping this simple acronym front of mind might just be the thing that prompts a tradesperson to take that extra moment to really ask a fellow workmate, someone on site or someone at a merchant’s how they are doing. Signposting help If someone encounters a tradesperson (or a tradesperson’s immediate family member) they believe is experiencing anxiety, depression, loneliness, relationship issues, self-harm, suicidal thoughts or any other trauma, they are encouraged to recommend taking that allimportant first step and visiting the Apply for Help section of www.bandofbuilders.org. There’s a dedicated Wellbeing Support page, where there is more information about the counselling service. Tradespeople can self-refer and receive confidential counselling in person (dependent on location), by phone or online via a video call service such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom. And if someone is experiencing a mental health crisis, there are also details of how to get immediate help. Just so we’re absolutely clear, this is a FREE service for tradespeople and their immediate families – and all this has been made possible as a result of the kind and generous donations from our first ever Big Brew, which have meant we have been able to fund this counselling service for two years. In addition to this, we have been able to fund 150 mental health awareness courses, designed primarily for builders’ merchant staff across the UK, as they are often the first line of support for tradespeople. The final and most important point that I always make is that we’d much rather support lots of people who are in crisis, than hear of even just one family who have been left bereaved because a tradesperson has succumbed to suicidal thoughts and taken their own life.
