Training the Smart-Space Team To Recognise And Support Mental Health In The Workplace

Four members of our team, Jason Lynock, Shaun Stephens, Andy Green and Corrie Douglas attended the Mental Health Workplace Responders course. It is designed to provide the skills and knowledge around numerous mental health conditions to promote positive attitudes towards mental health in the workplace, and to encourage open discussions around mental health so immediate support can be available where necessary. The course also outlines how to signpost to appropriate external services for additional support. 

A further three members of the team: Matt Lymer, Russell Slater and Andy Freeman, took part in the Mental Health Workplace First Aider 2-day course to become Mental Health Workplace First Aiders. By completing this course, they have gained an indepth understanding of mental health and the factors that can affect wellbeing, the skills to recognise the triggers and signs of mental illnesses and an understanding of how to perform some imperative physical first aid as part of the response to mental illness.
