With Mental Health being so prominent in the news and companies realising the benefits of delivering it to their employees, we predict this will be considered best practice in a few short years.
Mental health awareness is something that is vital to everyone. Our course helps raise awareness of mental illness within the staff group, encourages early intervention to aid recovery, increases confidence in dealing with mental illnesses and equips staff with the skills and knowledge required to support each other and themselves.
