It’s hard to understand how the events of the last year have impacted on the welfare of the people around us. And whilst many of us are focused on the mental wellbeing of ourselves and our colleagues, we probably still have only begun to break down the barriers to discussion of this topic.
To help you promote awareness and positive action within your company, we have put together a training course, commissioned in partnership with The HR Point as part of the MI Academy.
The purpose of this course is to raise employee awareness of mental health in the workplace. Mental health is reported to affect 1 in 4 people, this can vary from a short term occurrence to life-long mental health conditions.
In this course, we will look at;
- What mental health means
- What can you do to help your mental health
- The different types of mental health conditions
- The symptoms of mental health
- How you can support colleagues with their mental health
The dates & times of this course are to be announced. If you would like to register your interest in taking part in this training, please email alice@mia.org.uk at your earliest convenience to secure a place.
Happening this morning (Friday 14th May) at 10am:
