Mental Health First Aid Training & Workplace Wellbeing Training

Empowering Your Workforce with Essential Skills for Mental Health & Wellbeing

In today’s fast-paced, high-stress world, mental health is more important than ever. Birmingham Mind is committed to promoting a healthy, supportive, and productive workplace. Our Mental Health First Aid Training and Workplace Wellbeing Training programs are designed to equip your team with the tools and knowledge they need to support each other’s mental health and create a thriving, resilient workplace culture.

Mental Health First Aid Training

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training teaches your employees to identify, understand, and support their colleagues experiencing mental health challenges. Just like physical first aid, mental health first aid is all about offering initial support until professional help is available.

Benefits of MHFA Training:

• Create a supportive workplace: Employees will feel safe and understood, knowing there is someone they can turn to in times of mental health need.
• Reduce stigma: Increase awareness and understanding of mental health challenges, fostering an inclusive environment where employees feel comfortable discussing their wellbeing.
• Build resilience: With the tools to identify and manage stress or crises, your workforce will be better equipped to handle mental health challenges proactively.
• Legal and moral responsibility: Organizations are responsible for the mental wellbeing of their employees, and MHFA training ensures you meet that responsibility while empowering your team.

What Will Your Team Learn?

• Recognise common signs and symptoms of mental health problems
• Understand the basic principles of mental health and mental illness
• Develop effective strategies to approach a colleague in need
• Learn how to signpost professional help and support available within the workplace and community

Workplace Wellbeing Training

Promoting wellbeing goes beyond addressing immediate mental health issues; it’s about creating a culture that prioritises long-term employee health and productivity. Our Workplace Wellbeing Training offers strategies and skills to help employees thrive both mentally and physically, fostering an environment of wellbeing that benefits everyone.

What is Workplace Wellbeing Training?

Workplace Wellbeing Training is designed to enhance overall mental, emotional, and physical health at work. Through a combination of awareness, skill-building, and proactive techniques, our training programs help employees to improve their wellbeing and performance, while also encouraging managers and leaders to provide ongoing support and recognition.

Key Areas Covered in Workplace Wellbeing Training:

• Stress management: Teach employees how to manage stress effectively through time management, mindfulness techniques, and relaxation strategies.
• Work-life balance: Encourage healthier work habits and set boundaries to prevent burnout.
• Positive workplace culture: Create a culture that values openness, collaboration, and respect to ensure all employees feel supported and engaged.

Benefits of Workplace Wellbeing Training:

• Enhanced employee engagement and productivity: Employees who feel mentally and physically well are more productive, focused, and motivated.
• Improved retention: Supporting employee wellbeing leads to a happier, more loyal workforce.
• Better team dynamics: A workplace focused on wellbeing encourages cooperation, reduces conflict, and boosts morale.
