Mental Wellbeing
Mental Wellbeing Course Duration: 3 hours
In working to safeguard mental wellbeing in 2023, we need to begin from the changes that the pandemic has brought to our work and home lives: increased stress and anxiety for many, caused by the health, social and economic impacts; the growing awareness for many of the need to look after their own wellbeing and increased opportunity to do so; the changes that home and hybrid working have brought to work communication and relationships.
This mental wellbeing course is delivered by our Associate Andy who has dedicated his life to assisting others in learning and in improving their lives. He has done so across a diverse range of people from prisoners serving ‘life’ sentences to CEOs of major companies. Therefore, his ability to build rapport, communicate complex ideas and guide changes in behaviour is the foundation of his work as a facilitator.
Andy is also a designer of drama-based and active learning courses, specialising in Equality, Diversity and Inclusion projects, Mental Health Awareness, Resilience and Mental Well-being at Work
This 3-hour mental wellbeing course session has 2 primary aims:
To build a toolkit of approaches to look after your own mental wellbeing
To develop practical skills in supporting the mental wellbeing of colleagues
Mental Wellbeing Pre-course work
