Host a Corporate Programme
According to a survey conducted by the Mental Health Foundation in 2020, almost 1 in 5 UK workers (18%) reported experiencing anxiety or depression as a result of work in the past year. Additionally, the same survey found that 1 in 8 (12.8%) people had taken time off work in the past year as a result of stress, anxiety or depression.
Workplace anxiety (or high-performance anxiety) manifests itself in different ways including feelings of excessive worry, tension and fear about work-related tasks, performance or deadlines. It can also be expressed as social anxiety, with the fear of being judged by colleagues, clients or supervisors (line managers). Those suffering may experience panic attacks and eventually burnout – a state of mental, emotional and physical exhaustion that has been caused by an extensive period of stress.
In a presentation to HR Directors and Wellbeing Champions, supporting people with anxiety, we received feedback that the resources shared offered valuable, practical advice and techniques and we wanted to make this available to others. We explored both the impact that anxiety is having in society and how nature and the sense of community can support and reduce anxiety symptoms.

Giving Back to Your Local Community
Every corporate programme funds a free community programme!
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives have transformed welfare into a strategic practice that requires adequate ground-level expertise. Charities and NGOs offer unique benefits that can enhance the philanthropic goals of corporations, as they often have deeper and stronger ties with communities.
Thus, a successful partnership between corporates and Charities or NGOs leads to greater authenticity and a commitment to social initiatives that create measurable social impact. The alignment also leads to enhanced visibility and strengthens trust with businesses, governments, and communities.
The Psychosynthesis Trust has recognised this and included corporate social responsibility into the projects model, so that companies can work closer with their local community gardens/social farms and fund their local residents to access an Exploring Anxiety programme themselves.
