Take the ‘Your Mind Plan’ quiz

Public Health England has launched an NHS-endorsed Mind Plan quiz, to support the Better Health-Every Mind Matters campaign.

The quiz is designed for people aged 18 or over and all of the actions suggested by the plan have been identified via a range of evidence-seeking activities, and were scored by members of an expert advisory group and clinical advisers.
