HULL: A citywide campaign has been launched to encourage people to support their family, neighbours and colleagues.
The 1in4ofus campaign, commissioned by NHS Hull, aims to increase awareness and reduce the stigma attached to mental health issues.
Based on in-depth research carried out in 2011, experts found a number of people in Hull found difficulties connecting with others over issues of mental health.
A total of 37 per cent of people in Hull with a mental health problem have faced discrimination from family.
To help overcome this, the campaign team has teamed up with Hull City Council to advertise their services. hold family-focussed festive craft making events and hand out free packs of Christmas cards with helpful messages.
