With over half of NHS workers suffering from poor mental health and with one in four NHS staff having considered suicide, our new campaign underlines how, in many cases, NHS staff are sicker than the patients they are treating.

I saw this before a film at the IMAX on Sunday evening. Audience was in total shock and awe. Absolutely essential advertising.
Just seen it tonight - almost brought me to tears, but then the anger took over when I saw that it was a charity FFS what is the matter with this country?
Arguably the most powerful 2 minutes I've ever seen on YT. My thoughts and prayers go out to anyone affected by mental health struggles. And to those working in Healthcare, you are not forgotten. I know it is tough, but you are loved, and appreciated, and the world is a better place with you in it! ❤
Saw this at Frome Westway cinema - having worked in the NHS and with family still there, this is so spot on and heartbreaking. Great piece of work and, as others have mentioned, this should be all over TV and in streaming ads and anywhere it can be. I'll be fundraising off the back of seeing this.
Thank you so much, Dan, your support is hugely appreciated.
This needs to be shown as a TV ad. NHS staff face so much abuse alongside terrible pay and worse working conditions. People need a harsh reminder that they are human and still greatly affected by the trauma they see every day. To any health care workers reading this, thank-you.
This was just played as an ad in the cinema
Yes we face abuse from patients. This is very true, but we need to look at the institution too.
I loved my job, but I left the NHS 18 months ago. Not because of patients, but lack of support from managers, directors, HR. Internal structures.
Managers not listening. No reality of what is happening for staff OR patients.
I can honestly say any ‘abuse’ I have received from a patient has been valid. If I was ‘that’ patient I would have reacted the same. Or the ‘abuse’ was part of them being un well.
We need to address managers, HR - who gaslight, bully. Have no medical training.
I’ve been managed in a medical setting by someone with a Travel and Tourism degree. We need management with integrity, this comes with medical training. The ethos of our training and our caring profession.
We need to address the racism, bullying, disability discrimination within the NHS. It’s at its core.
Being around this all day is a key factor in MH outcomes.
Assisted Employee programs… with targets? They screen and prioritise. They will only support 20% of NHS staff.
The 80% go off sick and put more pressure on remaining staff. The cycle continues.
Patients suffer. They are named ‘abusive’. Puts pressure on staff.
Meanwhile middle manager on a huge salary takes more annual leave. Relaxes on the weekend. Buys a new Gucci bag, has nails done and comes back Monday with more hair brain ideas.
This has been happening in the 4 NHS Trusts I’ve worked in and the reason I’m out.
Theres only so much a person can take
The NHS saved us now it is about time we saved them . The UK goverment need to put a hand in there pocket or else there will be riots in the streets.
God save the NHS workers.
I can say I have had moments, akin to these, that are portrayed, we are only human, but people only see the uniform, much like any other front line service.
I am a renal patient at my local hospital and I have nothing but praise for the Doctors and Nurses who have looked after me.
That was exactly how I felt working in A and E after the pandemic and ICU during the pandemic
We MUST treat them with lots of love and respect, even the ones in care homes are suffering with mental health. 😢❤
I saw this at the cinema today and it gave me goosebumps and hit me as hard as any film ever could. These people are heroes and do not get enough credit ❤❤❤
I work clinically in the NHS and saw this at the cinema - it really resonated, very moving, have shared with a number of colleagues who had the same reaction and will also share more widely.
Thank you
Saw this at the cinema. My wife is a mental health nurse and she says they are seeing more NHS frontline staff than ever. I have set up a monthly donation.
Thank you so much for your donation, the support of our donors makes a HUGE difference to the work we are able to do.
@@frontline1941 Did Captain Tom's money help at all?
Why is this only at cinema? Needs more widespread release
Hi, we are pleased to say that our advert has also been shown on Channel 4 but yes, would be great to see it everywhere so more people are aware.
Whichever agency came up with this needs an award! As do the NHS staff.
This is fucking discusting. The NHS should not have to go through this traumatic and bloody shit that they all have. They have saved our lives now it is about time we save them. The Uk government and the rich upper class need to sort this out and not just think about themselves. I prey to God save the NHS workers.
How can we get this on national TV?
Approach Channel 4 or ITV. The Post Office scandal film was powerful. A film about NHS workers should be equally as powerful.
@@pamelawhite5464yep I totally agree with you this video breaks my heart ❤️
We have been supported by Channel 4 with some pro bono spots tonight and for the next 3 nights but please share this on social media. The more people who see it? The more press are interested in talking about this. Thank you !
I'm not sure but its at least being shown in some cinemas. That's where I saw it today
@@Spyrotastic141 Shown here in Essex - just seen it tonight and shared on Social media.
How awful that we need a charity to provide support for NHS staff!
Yeah exactly - disgusting. I just shared it on FB with the accompanying... "How on earth can you watch this with a clear conscience when you vote Tory... Oh yeah I forgot you do charity work don't you in between getting your accountant to ensure you pay as little tax as you possibly can".
I worked in the nhs for over 10 years, worked my way up and qualified as an OT 5 years ago. In 2022, I had a breakdown, got diagnosed with complex PTSD, and I haven't been able to work since. The government has massively let us down and abused our good will for too long. We are sick, just like you. We are dying, just like you. Our hearts break with yours. We see the happiest parents of new life and the darkest days of people's suffering. We actually love what we do; we're just not being supported, financially or psychologically, to do it. I really loved my job. But I can never go back. I'm the patient now, and I get to see the cracks from the other side. We are breaking, and some of us are already broken.
as someone who works in the NHS in one of their labs, this is quite the eye opener, I imagine it applies to more to frontline workers than lab staff, but I had a mental breakdown myself back in january this year to to constant stress and feeling overworked, ((all i do is book in samples and admin paperwork, 5 days a week, for 7 hours a day and we get so many samples our team can barly keep up, no background music or anything like that, we can't even have longish conversations and banter to break the monotonmy because someoe in the lab tells us to be quiet, or tells our manager))
while this may not apply to lab staff as much as Frontline staff, to hear that at least 50% of staff are suffering like this and 25% want to end it ((to put it lightly....)) that's just abysmasl, and to think, the act of just asking for silence in the lab has a highn chance to push someone into a mental breakdown, or even cause someone to end it if they are part of that unlucky 25%...
I'm just in shock and am very concerned for myself, and my team
Lab staff does plenty ♥️
I work in the nhs and i wonder how much longer i can im broken
Saw this at the cinema! Didn't expect to start tearing up before the movie even began!
Saw this a few times at the cinema and it made me tear up each time. NHS staff have been mistreated and underpaid for far far too long. They deserve better, so so much better then what they’re getting now ❤️
This is powerful. It hits emotionally every time I see it.
The Tories are not going to help them so it's up to us to help them
CCTV from Holby City and Casualty
NHS staff face a lot of abuse not just from patients but by other staff members as well.
To answer this, remove the language exam and hire nurses from the Philippines.
You completely missed the point of the advert.
@@ojj3340 naah. Just hire Ph nurses. Let them take a mental health sick leave and we do the bank. Basic!
Oh come on, these aren't real NHS staff, they're actors.
Have you been on a ward or with a community nurse when they get to breaking point? Have you ever experienced anything like this? I have. As a staff member, family member and patient. This is real. It happens and should not. I am lucky that the team I work with are fully supportive of one another but it doesn't stop the feelings of being totally overwhelmed, of fear, and upset. We see all aspects of life and death. Everyone has a breaking point. Whether they are actors or not. This is real!
I feel so bitter about the nhs at this stage , refused to do a scan on my mother in February she died the following day from bleed in her lungs which they insisted was just a bad cold , i feel sorry for the patients more than the staff
Don't get mad at the staff. Get mad at 14 years of tory austerity that has put the NHS at breaking point.
@@xeroniris it was the staff who denied the scan her gp requested not politicians and she lived in Scotland not England so SNP rule
Fuck off and pay for it then. Don’t like it, train as a doctor and recognise the system trying to deliver first world medical care in third world resourcing. Then you get to complain.
@@WattWood and it's the UK government that decides the total amount of money the Scottish government have to spend across all the resources that they manage, including the NHS. Devolution is not the same as independence, the SNP have the responsibility but only limited authority. But the Tories and the media don't mention that to the public, when attacking the Scottish (or Welsh) governments.
@@chelleh8673 I am well aware of how government works and I am well aware of how bad the Tories are and I am also well aware that nothing will change under Labour, SNP or whoever . two cheeks of the same arse is the expression , but finances do not cause incompetence , Finances do not cause negligence but Incompetence and negligence do effect finances
