The annual World Mental Health Day has just passed (10th October) and to recognise the importance of this day, we’re going to explore some of the best apps which can be used to combat mental health, in all its forms.

Mental health is an extremely broad subject and holds a vast array of conditions, so it’s important to remember there is no ‘one fits all’ solution. We will try our best to include apps that address more than just one condition as there are so many out there - from anxiety, to anger, to OCD, to depression - though, you should do your own research into apps that are designed with specific conditions in mind where necessary.

Though this year may not be exactly how any of us intended, there is still no reason why it can't be enjoyable! With the children out of school, you need to maintain their entertainment levels and keep them occupied while being stuck indoors. We have put together a list of activities that you could do while staying at home. 

"With the time you now have on your hands why don't you encourage your children to learn a new hobby; this can be from learning a new instrument, creating crafts, baking or even jewellery making.

Working from home might help you focus on your work in the short term, but it can also make you feel cut off the larger operation happening in the office. Instant messaging and videoconferencing tools can make it easy to check in with coworkers and remind you how your work is contributing to the big picture. 

"Part of what enables us to work from home so much more often now is the array of apps and tools designed to help remove distance as a barrier between team members. Finding the right tools to keep you and your team connected is important for staying productive at home.
