Celebrating My Whole Self Day 2025: Supporting Mental Health at MAK Community Care
Today, on My Whole Self Day 2025, MAK Community Care proudly joins Mental Health First Aid England’s campaign to create inclusive and psychologically safe workplaces. This year marks the sixth year of the campaign, focused on supporting mental health, diversity, and wellbeing within the workplace. At MAK, we are committed to ensuring our staff can bring their whole selves to work, creating a culture where everyone can thrive.
Why Mental Health and Psychological Safety Matter
Research shows that when employees feel psychologically safe, they perform better. A safe environment allows individuals to share ideas, ask questions, and make mistakes without fear of judgement. This fosters collaboration, innovation, and higher team performance. At MAK, we know that supporting our staff’s mental health is essential to providing excellent care for our service users.

By prioritising mental health, we create a positive culture that allows our staff to perform at their best. Our ethos is rooted in treating staff and service users with dignity, respect, and compassion—ensuring a supportive environment for both.
Creating a Positive Culture
Culture at MAK is defined by our shared values and commitment to continuous growth and learning. We actively listen to our staff, ensuring they have the support and resources they need to succeed. This commitment to mental health and wellbeing benefits not only our staff but also the service users who rely on us.
