Mental Health First Aiders
What is a mental health first aider?
Our Mental health first aiders are employees who all have a personal interest in mental health and have come together to help other employees who may be struggling themselves.
They have all been officially trained to help people take care of their mental health and can direct colleagues to further support if needed.
