To mark World Mental Health Day (10th October), Wecasa – the at-home mobile cleaning, wellness, beauty and home services app – is joining forces with TV personality, actor and father to twins, Ollie Locke, to highlight the importance of protecting “me-time” as a cornerstone of good mental health.
In a world where busy schedules, long to-do lists and constant juggling of work and home life dominate, carving out time for yourself is no longer a luxury – it’s essential. Wecasa is on a mission to make me-time more accessible by delivering professional wellness, beauty, and home services straight to your door. Whether it’s a massage after a long work week, a cleaner to lift the load, or a haircut that boosts confidence, Wecasa empowers people to reclaim moments for themselves – guilt-free.
Ollie is a man who truly knows the juggle trying to balance a busy home life with young children and a hectic work schedule adding to the mental load that follows us all around – making him the perfect ambassador for Wecasa. Speaking on the partnership, Ollie said: “Life can feel like a juggling act, especially as a parent. We often underestimate how much the little things, like cleaning or folding laundry, weigh on us. Giving yourself permission to hand those tasks over, and carving out time just for you, can make all the difference to your mental wellbeing.”
Ollie’s Top Tips to Support Mental Health
Wecasa as a company truly believes that mental wellbeing starts with making space for yourself – and that includes outsourcing what you can. Whether it’s getting a massage, booking a cleaner, or finally treating yourself to a beauty appointment at home, it’s not indulgent – it’s essential for mental health. With the code OLLIE20 Wecasa and Ollie are giving all new customers 20% off all cleaning services, valid for a month.
It can be difficult to know where to start when trying to balance the daily juggle and mental load however, Ollie has learned from his own experience and these are the coping mechanisms that work for him:
- Outsource to lighten your mental load: Sometimes the smallest things, like cleaning the kitchen or folding laundry, can weigh the heaviest on our minds. Don’t feel guilty about outsourcing these tasks. By letting someone else take care of the housework, you free up space for rest, connection, or just a breather.
- Create small rituals of self-care: You don’t need a whole spa weekend to feel better. Even a 30-minute massage, a haircut at home, or simply taking the time to slow down with a treatment can reset your mood. Build these rituals into your week so you never feel like you’re running on empty.
- Schedule ‘you-time’ like any other priority: We’re quick to put meetings, errands, and everyone else in our diaries, but we forget to put ourselves in there too. Book yourself into your own calendar. Whether that’s a facial at home, or even just an hour with your phone off, protecting that time is vital for your mental wellbeing.
Pierre André, co-founder at Wecasa adds: “Me-time is not selfish – it’s a form of self-preservation. When we pause to prioritise ourselves – even for an hour – we recharge, reset, and show up better in all areas of life. At Wecasa, we’re proud to have Ollie on board to help spread the word of our mission for World Mental Health Day. It’s important to remember that our homes often mirror our state of mind. A tidy, calm environment makes it easier to relax and focus on the things that really matter. By outsourcing cleaning and home tasks, you’re not just freeing up your time—you’re also protecting your headspace.”
With Wecasa’s flexible services – ranging from home cleaning and laundry support to massages, hairdressing, and beauty treatments at home – the partnership with Ollie Locke aims to remind everyone that investing in a calm home and personal downtime isn’t indulgent, it’s essential.
