They were looking for the opportunity to connect with professionals in similar roles to share experiences, understand best practice and gain first-hand advice and knowledge from colleagues in the same boat as them. We are proud to offer them this support through connecting our network on 1:1 basis and also through regular closed round tables to discuss, share and learn from each other.

Mental Health First Aid England

Mental Health First Aid England believes in zero stigma around mental health. They provide mental health first aid training to enable people to talk freely about mental health and to seek support when they need it. I completed my mental health first aid training in 2020 and would highly recommend it to better understand mental health conditions and how to provide support and signposting to resources.
