Support only works when people know how to use it

You may already offer an employee assistance programme, a wellbeing page or an open-door policy. They only help if people feel able to speak up, and if the people around them know how to respond.

People often notice when a colleague is struggling and stay quiet because they’re not sure what to say. Managers may worry about overstepping. Stress can build for months before anyone stops to look at where it’s coming from.

Our training gives your people the skills and confidence to act. You can start with one course or combine several to build a programme across the year.

How we work with you

We start with a conversation about what’s happening in your organisation and what you want the training to achieve. Then we recommend a course or a combination of courses and agree dates that fit around your teams.

Some organisations start with the webinar for everyone, then train a smaller group as Mental Health First Aiders. Others run a series of workshops across the year to keep wellbeing on the agenda.
