At Aqualease, we have a majority male team and we are particularly passionate about men’s mental health.
Â
Research shows that, compared to 2009, men are three times more likely to see a therapist when worried or low. đ
Â
It’s great that we are heading in the right direction in terms of raising awareness, but we still have a long way to go.
Â
While mental health is a complex topic, we can all make small changes to try and help men speak up.
Â
Our aquariums can be used to create a relaxing space away from the hubbub, giving employees and service users an opportunity to reflect.
Â
The fish are also a great ice-breaker and a natural prompt for people to get to know each other better.
Â
We know that connecting with nature improves mood too. Our aquariums are a great way to bring nature indoors and make it accessible for everyone.
Â
We are proud that our aquariums have been proven to boost mental wellbeing in a variety of settings, from schools to care homes, mental health rehabilitation facilities and even prisons. đ đ
