Mental Health

One in four people have mental health issues. Indirectly their challenges impact many more people if you take into account the individuals with whom they share their time, at home, at work, and socially.

In BDI our ethos is to provide a supportive and understanding environment if individuals are suffering from mental health issues.

In this spirit, Chris Denning, Director of BDI, has been open about that fact that he himself suffers with mental health issues. In early 2020 he published a blog about his experiences, and how he was supported in a variety of ways to enable him to live a more content and fulfilling life: Mental health: Time to start a conversation? - The University of Nottingham

This blog includes a follow up to his initial blog, published in May 2022, detailing the significant impact that his initial blog had had on others, and on him.
