European Mental Health Week is a pan-European initiative aiming to raise awareness about the importance of mental health in our everyday lives.
Led by Mental Health Europe and taking place 4-8 May 2026, the initiative brings together organisations across Europe to reflect, engage and prioritise mental health in a meaningful way.
The 2026 theme — Stronger Together: Prioritise Mental Health in a Changing Europe — highlights the importance of connection, shared understanding and collective responsibility in supporting mental health across workplaces and communities.
For organisations, it offers a valuable opportunity to create space for conversation, support teams, and engage employees in a way that feels relevant to the realities of modern working life.
It’s Not Too Late to Do Something Meaningful
European Mental Health Week often sits on the radar, but doesn’t always come with months of planning.
We support organisations in creating high-quality, engaging sessions that can be delivered within shorter timeframes, without compromising on impact.
Whether you’re marking the week itself or using it as a moment to bring teams together, the focus is on creating something that resonates.
Workshops & Sessions for European Mental Health Week
We offer a range of sessions designed to support employees and teams in navigating the realities of work, wellbeing and performance.
These sessions can be delivered virtually across multiple countries and time zones, making them ideal for pan-European teams
Stress & Pressure Management
Helping employees understand cognitive load, manage workload more effectively and recognise early signs of stress.
Sleep, Recovery & Performance
A science-led session exploring the role of recovery in sustaining energy, focus and performance.
Peak Performance Under Pressure
Supporting individuals and teams to maintain performance in demanding environments, without burning out.
Manager Mental Health & Wellbeing
Equipping managers to support their teams, have more confident conversations and create psychologically safe environments.
Wellbeing Events, Panels & Conversations
Alongside workshops, many organisations use European Mental Health Week as an opportunity to create more open, human conversations.
We support keynote talks, panel discussions, fireside chats and facilitated leadership conversations — helping organisations bring the theme of Stronger Together to life in a way that feels authentic and engaging.
These formats create space for reflection, shared experience and meaningful dialogue across teams.
Designed for European & Global Teams
Our sessions are designed to work across countries, cultures and time zones.
We regularly support organisations with pan-European teams, delivering sessions across multiple regions or running repeat sessions to ensure accessibility.
All sessions can be delivered virtually, with options for recording and extended access to support ongoing engagement.
Stretching the City delivered five fantastic workshops during our Mental Health Awareness Week here at Accenture. The speakers were extremely knowledgeable, engaging and professional and helped us deliver a MHA Week to remember. Thanks Stretching the City!
I wanted to thank you both for all your help in setting up mental health and wellbeing sessions. They have enabled us to be more open about mental health at OMD, and more specifically about anxiety and depression. I know people have found them incredibly useful.
I had a few people reach out afterwards to say it was the best Mental Health workshop they’d attended!
