The largest cause of sickness absence for our country’s workforce is depression, stress and anxiety but simple steps to improve the management of mental health in the workplace will allow employers to save up to 30% or more of these costs

Did you know that 1 in 4 people in the UK will suffer from a mental health issue each year.

Our mental health is equally as important as our physical health but as a society we don’t tend to know how to take care of our mental health like we do our physical health.

This means that we sometimes don’t know how to support a work colleague, a friend, a family member who are experiencing a mental health issue, or where to go to find support for ourselves.

Focused training is offering a 2-day accredited course that will help participants develop an understanding of mental health and the factors that affect our wellbeing and give you practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues. Their course will give you the confidence to step in, reassure and support someone in distress.

Courses will be running at Birchwood Park, starting on the 23/24 April through to the end of July
