Stress - still one of the main reasons #surveyors approach us for help.
Ironically, the busier you are the more inclined you are to ignore the 1st warning signs of stress that can lead to even bigger mental & physical health issues.

On this day 25 years ago, Queen Elizabeth II visited @RICSnews HQ to mark its centenary & our own 100th anniversary year, saying: "I should like to pay tribute to the tireless fundraisers, dedicated trustees & staff of your benevolent fund LionHeart."

As we mark our quasquicentennial (newly learnt word alert!) this year, we're still indebted to our donors, fundraisers and volunteers who make it possible for us to keep doing what we do for the #surveying community.
We'd love to know if you were there that day!
Our live webinar schedule is having a summer break, but we have a whole range of subjects ready to book for Sept & Oct, all with your wellbeing & personal development in mind.
Details here lionheart.org.uk/events - where you can also find our webinar library & podcasts.
Something we believe with all our hearts! More than 90% of the callers who rang our helpline told us they felt 'better' or 'much better' after even that initial call - because sometimes you just need to know there's someone there to listen & put a plan in place to help.
Our experienced support officers are there to listen to #RICS professionals, whatever it is that they are facing. Call in confidence now or find out more about the ways we might be able to support you on our website: lionheart.org.uk/helping-you
Massive thanks to all those who took part in this 125th anniversary run/walk/ cycle challenge in June, raising thousands of pounds for us 🙏

What's the very best piece of advice our support team would give to #RICS professionals this #WorldWellbeingWeek?
That the earlier you ask for help, the better. Please don't feel like you have to be at breaking point to pick up the phone.

"Life-changing!" was how one person described the difference our counselling made.
