Celebrating Mental Health Awareness Week with InTune and ‘Reset & Rewind’

Taking care of your wellbeing is just as vital to a long-lasting music career as your creative output. This Mental Health Awareness Week, the PRS Members’ Fund is reminding PRS songwriters and composers that looking after your mind should be as fundamental to your routine as tuning an instrument or warming up your voice.

To help you stay proactive, we are highlighting two essential resources designed to keep you creative, healthy, and resilient.

Get InTune with Your Wellbeing

Music creators face unique pressures, from irregular hours to the emotional highs and lows of the industry. InTune is our free digital tool designed specifically to help you navigate these challenges.

I’ve suffered with mental health problems in the past. However, if I feel like any more problems might occur, InTune is somewhere I can turn to for support.

The platform offers a quick and easy way to monitor your health before life gets “too loud.” By answering a few simple questions about your lifestyle, you receive instant, tailored advice and resources specific to your current needs.

PRS members Jermaine ‘J’ Hurley has used InTune in the past, telling us he found the tool invaluable for his own journey, noting that it offers a reliable safety net if he ever feels the pressure start to build.

We are encouraging all members to take just five minutes this week to check in and see how InTune can support them.

Recharge with ‘Reset & Rewind’

Sometimes, a digital check-in isn’t enough, and a physical break is needed to prevent burnout. Our wellbeing break scheme, Reset & Rewind, is now open for applications.

We understand that the cost-of-living crisis and financial instability can make taking a holiday feel impossible. Reset & Rewind offers small grants (up to £500) to help members facing mental health challenges or recovery from illness to take a short break within the UK. Whether it’s a quiet weekend by the coast or a few days in the countryside, this scheme is designed to give you the space to breathe and reconnect with yourself.

How to Access Support

The PRS Members’ Fund exists to ensure no music creator has to face hardship alone. Whether you need the proactive tools found in InTune or the restorative support of a Reset & Rewind break, we are here for you.
