80% of managers say they do not know how to deal with mental health issues.

We teach ways to identify and raise issues.
We practice scenarios to increase confidence.
We use current cases to increase understanding and make training effective.

Awareness raising

mentalhealth

The first battle is raising awareness. This reduces stigma and makes it easier to identify and deal with issues.
Our use of trainers with lived experience brings the issues to life and improves understanding.

Building resilience

resilence

Once you are aware of the issues the next step is to learn what you can do to reduce the affects and increase your productivity.

We use elements from the NEF research around the key ways to improve wellbeing and practice simple relaxation exercises that can immediately reduce stress and anxiety.
