Mental health – It’s not always easy to know what to say or what to do…

Mental Health Awareness Week 2019 will take place from Monday 13 to Sunday 19 May 2019.

Mental health presents one of the greatest challenges to our society. With an estimated 450 million people worldwide suffering from a mental health problem, and around a quarter of British adults will experience some form of mental health problem within the course of a year.

In preparation for Mental Health Awareness week next week  next week, we know that it isn’t always easy to know what to do or say when dealing with mental health.  We are here to help with this! We provide fully funded courses to help you tackle these issues correctly.
