The good news? Starting the conversation about mental health and building resilience doesn't have to be daunting. All our wellbeing and mental health training courses provide a safe and open space for participants to share their experiences and learn practical strategies for improving mental health and building resilience.

"Brilliant! Very informative and helpful strategies. I personally may not be able to change the way I do everything, but the course has given me guidance on how to try and change things around."

"This has to be one of the best 'virtual' courses i have attended. The trainer was great at getting everyone to contribute and the break out rooms meant we got to speak to most of the others in the training and provide valuable feedback. Thank you!"
Attendee, Mental Health Awareness

"I found the course to be the perfect introduction and guidance for Mental Health Awareness. The trainer was very knowledgeable and encouraging throughout the session, getting us all involved. The subject is emotive and encouraged discussion, which is what we need to do help us all learn. Well done."
Attendee, Mental Health Awareness
-
"I thought our trainer was great - she was very open and approachable despite how difficult some of the topics were. She brought lightness to these topics and made me feel like I was in a safe environment which allowed me to open up in a way that I wouldn't often do. I look forward to staying on this learning journey myself while also knowing I can help others should they need it."
Attendee, Mental Health First Aid
-
"What could have seemed a fairly daunting number of elements and topics were covered in such a well structured and intuitive way, which resulted in an easy journey to understanding with a lot more clarity how to approach, help and hopefully ultimately be more effective in promoting better mental health across my team."
Attendee, Managing for Mental Health
-
"Honestly, this course was really eye-opening for me and has helped me understand what I need to do to look after myself and therefore be a better source of support as a manager. I was very impressed throughout and having an open forum like this was very helpful to understand where a lot of us stand within the business in regards to mental health management. Thank you very much."
Attendee, Managing for Mental Health
-
"Our trainer presented extremely well and clearly knows her subject. The break out sessions were timely and very worthwhile. Working at a fast, yet comfortable pace, the 2.5hrs flew by. A very worthwhile and and extremely informative workshop which was definitely worth me attending. Many thanks"
Attendee, Managing for Mental Health

"Very thought provoking, and enabled me to reflect on my reactions to stress and identify ways to help reduce the impact stress has on my life."
Attendee, Building Resilience: Basics

"A wonderful reminder that we all have mental health which needs to be looked after and to check in on people to make sure they are ok (and ask twice, as they may just say OK the first time!)"
Attendee, Managing for Mental Health
How can wellbeing training make your organisation a better place to work?
When work is so often cognitively demanding, taking care of everyone’s mental wellbeing is of critical importance.
The rise of remote work, coupled with increased workloads and uncertain economic times, has placed new kinds of stress on employees across industries. As such, it's no surprise that promoting positive mental health in the workplace has become a top priority for HR professionals, L&D specialists, and senior leaders alike.
This is where the benefits of training, learning, and development come into play. Investing in mental wellbeing training programs for employees not only fosters a culture of empathy and understanding but also equips them with the tools they need to take care of their own mental health.
With modules that cover topics such as supporting others' mental health, maintaining inner resilience, and protecting oneself from burnout, these programs are designed to help employees thrive both professionally and personally.
One of the powerful benefits of our mental wellbeing training courses is their ability to create a safe space for employees to share their experiences openly and honestly. By encouraging dialogue and increasing trust, these programs can help to break down stigmas around mental health and promote a culture of openness and acceptance in the workplace.
Our training sessions bring together proven techniques and perspectives from various modalities, including meditation, mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy. Attendees may also learn about different forms of mental illness, such as anxiety and depression, and how to recognise warning signs in themselves and their colleagues.
In addition to simply promoting employee wellbeing, investing in mental wellbeing training programs can also help organizations like yours achieve their broader HR goals. By fostering a culture of empathy and inclusivity, companies can improve their employer brand, increase retention rates, reduce illness and absence, and promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
All in all, the benefits of mental wellbeing training programs are clear. They promote empathy, understanding, and resilience while equipping employees with the tools they need to take care of their mental health. By investing in these programs, organizations can create a more positive and productive workplace culture, benefiting both employees and the business as a whole.
