  • Hello, this is Six Minute English, I'm Neil.

  • And I'm Georgina.

  • In this program, we're focusing on the topic of mental health at work.

  • Yes, it's an issue that can be difficult to see.

  • If someone has an injury like a broken leg or a serious medical issue,

  • it's obvious and we can understand what's happening.

  • With mental health issues, though, there's no physical sign and people who are experiencing difficulties.

  • Maybe don't get the same understanding as people who have medical problems.

  • It's a topic that has been getting more publicity recently,

  • particularly as members of the British Royal family have been talking about it.

  • Also, awareness is raised through events such as World Mental Health Day.

  • And that is the topic of our quiz.

  • World Mental Health Day is held every year on October the 10th.

  • It aims to raise awareness of mental health issues and their effects on people's lives.

  • In what year was it first held?

  • Was it A, 1992, B, 2002 or C, 2012?

  • What do you think, Georgina?

  • I don't know.
