Alison Unsted is chief executive of the City Mental Health Alliance UK

The extreme experience of the past two years — from the pandemic and lockdowns to financial uncertainty and important conversations about race — have put mental health and wellbeing firmly on the boardroom agenda. For the good of people, business, and wider society, it needs to stay there.

At the CMHA, our vision is that every business protects, supports, and creates positive health for their people. This is the right thing to do for your people. But it is clearly the business-critical thing to do too.
