In the UK, 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem at any one time, including in the workplace. What’s worse is that many employers and managers simply don’t understand enough about the topic and so can do little to help, which often results in a person’s mental health worsening.

This training course has been designed as an introduction to mental health to raise awareness of how important it is to the workplace. The course provides an overview of mental health problems, outlining some of the symptoms and effects, and explains what you can do to help colleagues feel supported and encouraged. This is an introductory course designed to increase mental health awareness and give an understanding of how to look after wellbeing and challenge stigma.

In this time of uncertainty looking after our mental health is vital. This course will help you to recognise and maintain good mental health habits.

The trainer

Looking after you during this half day online course will be Karen Haworth, the Director/Trainer/Consultant at Nutshell Training

Karen is a trainer and consultant with a wide range of industry experience, particularly in the hospitality and education sectors, both as an employer and employee.

She feels strongly that training should be worthwhile and not just a tick-box exercise and, where necessary, recognises the importance of being flexible to organizations’ training constraints.

Her chief aim is to help create happier, healthier, safer and more productive workforces through the delivery of appropriate training. Recognising, appreciating and developing a business’ most valuable assets i.e. its employees, can help it to run more efficiently by reducing sickness leave, accidents and staff turnover. This in turn helps to create positive and motivated personnel and ultimately a more successful and compliant business.

If people are supported and encouraged to flourish, so too will the business.
