Our Partners

As the leading professional body for workplace and personal stress management, we are committed to reducing workplace and personal stress, anxiety and depression. We are equally committed to educating businesses and other organisations about reducing stress and passionate about enhancing wellbeing, resilience and positive mental health.

ISMAUK’s valued partners share our long-term strategic vision to bring about positive changes and collaborate with us in developing and promoting sustainable goals.

Why Do Partners Matter?

ISMAUK‘s partners are key in helping us achieve our mission of reducing the highly negative effects of stress and poor mental health in the workplace. These partnerships demonstrate the many benefits of establishing progressive, interactive relationships, which are both supportive of and complementary to each partner’s values and objectives.

Partnership Benefits

  • A willingness to support each other’s events. ISMA events include International Stress Awareness Week and Stress Awareness Day each November
  • Reciprocal communication of shared or co-branded messages, using websites, press releases, social media, blogs and newsletters
  • Offering authoritative speakers with specialist knowledge of stress, wellbeing and mental health for events, conferences, webinars
