A Focus Group now meets regularly to develop a range of initiatives to impact the well-being and resilience of our staff, customers and children. All staff have been offered a Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course (Level 2) and we are delighted that 35 staff, approximately a third of our team, have completed it. In addition, the Managing Director is a qualified MHFA trainer and 5 senior members of staff have completed the accredited 2 day MHFA first aider course. We continue to demonstrate our commitment to treating mental and physical health equally This initiative is being led by the Directors with support from the management team and the involvement of all staff. Below is a wide ranging list of resources, if we don’t have what you are looking for then please let us know and we will add extra resources into this tool-kit.
