Thursday 13 June F2F– Supporting Mental Health - A Managers guide

Manchester Mind invite you to attend Supporting Mental Health - A Managers Guide

This course is running live, in Manchester City Centre, on Thursday 13 June.

The full day session must be attended in full, unfortunately we cannot record sessions. 

The training is delivered in a supportive environment by our practised trainers who bring their own lived experience and knowledge to facilitate open discussion and provide expert guidance.

We understand that talking about mental health isn’t always easy, particularly when times are as challenging as they are right now. As we don’t have any prior knowledge of you and your past experiences, we want to make sure you are keeping safe. So if you have any concerns before, during, or after the session, please let us know by emailing training@manchestermind.org, or you can call our switchboard on 0161 769 5732. If something doesn’t feel right, you can leave at any time, but please follow the ground rules set at the beginning of the session (usually we ask to make the trainer aware if you need to leave the session for any reason). 

This course is suitable for any staff with or working towards management responsibilities

The course is delivered in a very supportive environment and our trainer will be available after the session to offer any further guidance or support.
