During Mental Health Awareness Week, Don't Carry It Alone are reflecting on the connection between chronic illness and mental well-being.

Welcome to our Q&A session with Excel Against the Odds. We are thrilled to shed light on the remarkable work of this organisation, which is dedicated to supporting individuals with chronic illnesses and disabilities in the workplace.
