Mental Health Awareness Sessions

In addition to Mental Health First Aid training, Oakleaf offers several mental health awareness session options to give employees increased knowledge, awareness and confidence to support the mental health and wellbeing of their colleagues and themselves.

“We have been very pleased with the sessions delivered by Oakleaf on Mental Health Awareness. We have run several sessions, some aimed at our line managers specifically and others which invited all employees to participate. Jen Clay, our presenter, was able to tailor the sessions to our needs and focus the presentations on relevant topics for our organisation, balancing the sometimes difficult topic of discussing mental health with compassion and understanding. Feedback from individuals has been extremely positive and we look forward to continuing to work with Oakleaf in the future.”

 

– Kayleigh, Head of Human Resources at the Salvation Army International Headquarters

“The session (2-hour Introduction to Mental Health Awareness) was very insightful and helpful. I will definitely use some of the tools to improve mental health in my workplace.”

 

– Samantha Busingye, Care Manager at IRC Care Services
