Mental Health Champion – 1 Day Course

Work related stress and/or depression is the second most commonly
reported cause of occupational ill health in the UK.
For many of us, work is where we spend much of our lives, where we earn
our income and often where we make our friends. Having a fulfilling job,
and working in a supportive environment, can be a major contributory
factor in maintaining our mental health and general wellbeing.
We all have times when life gets on top of us – sometimes it’s work related,
sometimes it’s something else; health, relationships,
circumstances. It is vital that all organisations promote mental health at
work for those with existing issues, for those at risk, and for their
workforce as a whole.

In 2016 The Mental Health Foundation concluded that:
“Good mental health at work and good management go hand in
hand, and there is strong evidence that workplaces with high levels
of good mental health are more productive”
This course is designed to provide key people within organisations with a
solid awareness of common mental health issues, and with the knowledge
and skills required to support and signpost colleagues experiencing mental
health difficulties.

Tickets £95 + Vat general admission, add lunch for an additional £6.75.
