Mental Health First Aid

Creating a workplace which promotes wellbeing and supports those who are directly and indirectly affected by mental ill health is important to us as an organisation.

A mental health first aider’s role in the workplace is to act as a first point of contact for people with mental wellbeing concerns, providing support and guidance to their colleagues. As well as being someone to talk to, a mental health first aider also acts as an advocate for mental health in the workplace, helping to reduce stigmas and enact positive change.

As an organisation we are looking to understand the interest and capacity to help us establish what to provide.
