Starting in 2019, Minds Count has been running the Minds Count Annual Awards to recognise innovation and leadership in mental wellbeing in legal workplaces. The awards celebrate organisations and individuals who take concrete action to promote better mental wellbeing in legal workplaces, and champion best practice so that the rest of the profession can learn from industry leaders.
There are two categories of awards, the Best Mental Wellbeing Initiative in a Legal Workplace for organisations, and the Individual Leader in Legal Mental Wellbeing for individuals.
The awards are announced at the annual Minds Count Lecture.
