Higher Health Through my lens by Prof Ramneek Ahluwalia - Episode 1 on Mental Health

We are excited to announce the launch of our brand-new video podcast series, Higher Health Through My Lens, hosted by Prof. Ramneek Ahluwalia, CEO of Higher Health. Episode 1 – Mental Health Awareness Month Our first episode focuses on Mental Health Awareness Month this October, and Prof. Ramneek delivers a powerful and timely message about the mental health challenges many students face, especially with exams fast approaching for University, TVET Colleges, and CET Colleges students. Academic pressure during this time can lead to high levels of stress, anxiety, and other mental health issues. Prof. Ramneek offers a motivational message to help students navigate these challenges and reminds them that they are not alone in this journey. 24-Hour Crisis Helpline – Reach Out for Help Prof. Ramneek emphasizes the importance of seeking help if needed, urging students to make use of the Higher Health 24-Hour Crisis Helpline (0800 36 36 36). This free and confidential service is available around the clock, providing immediate access to a qualified psychologist who can support students facing anxiety, depression, or suicidal thoughts. As he notes, suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people in higher education, making it crucial that students seek help when they need it. Addressing Mental Health and Fighting Stigma In this episode, Prof. Ramneek advocates for fighting the stigma around mental health. He explains that understanding mental health is key to preventing issues before they escalate. He also highlights the importance of learning mental health skills through Higher Health’s Civic and Soft Skills programme, which is accredited at NQF Level 5 through the QCTO. Upon completion, students receive a certificate they can add to their CVs and LinkedIn profiles, giving them a valuable skill set that can support their future careers. Call to Action – Reach Out and Learn Prof. Ramneek’s message is clear: mental health challenges are real, but help is available. Students are encouraged to reach out and take advantage of the resources and support that Higher Health offers. By equipping themselves with the right tools, they can navigate the pressures of academia and protect their well-being. Stay tuned for more episodes of Higher Health Through My Lens as Prof. Ramneek continues to share insights on critical health issues affecting our students.
