āI 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 canāt recommend Mental Health at Work enoughā
Nancy LengthornHead of Diversity, Inclusion & Talent, Mediacom 
āIt 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 teamās timeā
Roy Brooke General Manager/Director 
āI am very impressed with the quality of delivery, content and relevance of the training provided by Mental Health at Work ā 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 issuesā

"I just wanted to give some feedback on the MHaW Mental Health AlliesĀ® 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"

Luned WhelanExecutive Manager 
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.
