Why train your team?

Mental health challenges directly affect employee productivity — and can be costly for all employers.

To see real change, organisations need employees to engage with the topic of mental wellbeing. Mental Health and Wellbeing Champions can support colleagues while taking pressure off managers and show a real commitment to employee mental wellbeing.

What will your team learn?

  • The mental health continuum and the symptoms people experience as their mental wellbeing changes
  • Symptoms of various conditions and risk factors in personal and work life
  • Defining the role of a Mental Health and Wellbeing Champion within your company (can be guided by the company or created by the delegates as part of the session)
  • Signs someone may be struggling with mental health, how to approach a conversation and act on concerns

Who this course is for

Colleagues who are passionate about health and wellbeing, and willing to volunteer to the role in addition to their regular duties. You may already have mental health and wellbeing champions, ambassadors or advocates in your business – this course will provide practical skills to support them in their role.
