Mental Health First Aid

Building your mental health support network

Empower your employees to recognise and support colleagues in distress; building a compassionate, knowledgeable and confident support network in your business.

For your workforce. For your business.

When mental health challenges aren’t addressed, productivity suffers, staff retention is impacted and valuable employees are unable to contribute effectively.

Without providing employees with the tools to manage and maintain wellbeing, you risk compromising workplace morale and your business's long-term success and reputation.

Building a network of meaningful, intentional support creates a safe, stigma-free workplace where employees do their best work for an employer who cares.

Client Testimonials

Trusted by organisations committed to positive workplace wellbeing.

  • “The trainer’s powerful story impacted me on both a professional and personal level. It gave me an insight into the thoughts and actions of someone who contemplates and attempts to take their own life, the reactions of those around them in the aftermath of those actions, as well as how those reactions can impact the recovery and wellbeing of the person concerned. Thank you.”
