We can now embrace mental health and wellbeing into our businesses and support ourselves and our employees. For me that means educating myself\, putting into practise what I have learnt for my own business and helping my clients understand it too’. \nJuliet Love: \n“Thank you both for a really great session – I thoroughly enjoyed it and am really looking forward to the 2 day workshop when it happens.” \nSue Calvert: \n“Thank you for such an informative session – I have learnt so much but am not overwhelmed as the workshop was nicely paced and interactive.

SUMMARY:Mental Health Awareness for Line Managers ONLINE over two morning sessions
DESCRIPTION:Line Managers are ideally positioned to make the biggest difference to mental health in the workplace\, but few know what to say or do\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nMental Health Awareness for Line Managers\nThe Adult Mental Health Aware Programme held over two mornings:\n6th and 8th July 9am till 12\n  \n\n\nLine Managers are ideally positioned to make the biggest difference to mental health in the workplace\, but few managers know what to say or do when a colleague or team member discloses a mental health issue. \nEmployers have a responsibility to be proactive in developing positive mental health pathways.

This means our course complies with universally accepted principles of Continual Professional Development (CPD) and has been structured to meet the criteria of personal development plans. Participants receive a CPD Certification for attending. \nThe training is held on one day or two half days \n

SUMMARY:Mental Health Awareness Training for Line Managers
DESCRIPTION:Line Managers are ideally positioned to make the biggest difference to mental health in the workplace\, but few managers know what to say or do when a colleague or team member discloses a mental health issue. \nEmployers have a responsibility to be proactive in developing positive mental health pathways. This should include training line managers to spot the early warning signs of mental health and provide them with the skills and confidence needed to intervene and have the supportive conversations necessary. \nTraining is part of the answer but should support an organisational culture of employee wellbeing. \nThis training aims to give line managers mental health awareness\, essential communication skills to handle difficult conversations\, and a broader understanding of how to promote a culture of wellbeing. \nThis One Day Course is independently evaluated for Continuing Professional Development purposes by The CPD Certification Service. This means our course complies with universally accepted principles of Continual Professional Development (CPD) and has been structured to meet the criteria of personal development plans.
