Who we work with

Our Journey

We began our journey in 2015 as a project within the Maudsley Charity and have been a subsidiary of the Mental Health Foundation since 2018. We develop tailored mental health programmes that enable positive behavioural and attitudinal changes around the stigma associated with mental health at work.

Our framework was developed for the workplace; focusing exclusively on what the workplace needs to know, in order to understand, manage and promote mental health at work and improve wellbeing.

Our approach is centred on facilitated virtual or face to face workshops, complemented by e-learning. Our programmes, underpinned by ongoing research and enriched by subject matter expertise, will improve mental health awareness at work and humanise conversations, embedding mental health into the fabric of your organisation.

“I have been on amazing training over the years, but none has been as impactful professionally or personally. We wanted to make a real step change and I now feel empowered to do that. It is utterly liberating to know we have the toolkit within our teams. I can’t recommend Mental Health at Work enough”

“It was critical to the success of our programme at Puma Energy that our Executive Team were fully informed, to enable us to support both the rollout to all staff and our ongoing process to embed in our culture. Mental Health at Work were very responsive, listening to our needs and tailoring content to ensure that this was a very valuable use of the team’s time”

“I am very impressed with the quality of delivery, content and relevance of the training provided by Mental Health at Work – we have never seen such positive evaluation and feedback on a training course before. We have firm proof that changes have taken place immediately following attendance at the training and stigma is already diminishing, evidenced by employees feeling comfortable to come forward and talk about their own previously undisclosed experiences with mental health issues”

"I just wanted to give some feedback on the MHaW Mental Health Allies® training and say that it was such an inspiring two days. I feel like I have learnt so much in such a short period of time and Debbie was just fantastic. Her passion and honesty was obvious from the get go and she really did push us to think differently to prepare us for the role"

"TAC has worked in partnership with Mental Health at Work to develop a customised training provision in order to encourage open and natural conversations about mental health within the television production industry. Feedback from our members has been outstanding. They had a positive learning experience and were glad of the opportunity to increase their confidence and skills to manage mental health within their working environments in a variety of senior roles"

We chose a partnership with Mental Health at Work, after looking at a range of providers in the market place, because of their pragmatic and agile approach. They took time to really get to know our business, language and pressure points around workplace mental health and created content that reflected our culture and way of working. This has resulted in an impactful, engaging and practical programme of workshops for our restaurant and Central Support managers that has been very widely well-received. The programme has evolved in content to continue to be impactful for attendees. We look forward to seeing the partnership continue into 2022.
