InsideOut Awards UK

The InsideOut Mental Health Awards will celebrate our mental health and the organisations and individuals who champion it!

On 24 March 2021 in London we will host the inaugural InsideOut Mental Health Awards, celebrating our mental health and those organisations and individuals who champion it. The evening itself will be very different to any other awards ceremony you have attended in the past and will provide a unique experience of celebration, networking, entertainment, and dancing with the industry’s finest.

We have added a number of new “Lockdown Mental Health Awards” to compliment the categories that have been already shortlist for excellence during 2019. The Awards are free to enter and will be a celebration of our mental health and those who champion it. Further details here

The awards will be brought to you by Rob Stephenson, Founder of InsideOut and Chris Cummings, CEO of the Wellbeing @ Work events globally. The diverse judging panel, formed of industry thought leaders and young people with lived experience and fresh perspectives, met recently and we now have our shortlist of finalists.

Together we will mark the progress of stigma getting smashed and celebrate the creation of mentally healthy workplaces that allow all employees to prioritise their wellbeing.

Our finalists include the following organisations:

After receiving over 160 entries, the judging panel met in 2020 and we are delighted to announce our shortlist of finalists. The winners will be announced on 24 March 2021 in central London.
