MIIndful Wellbeing Support Network

During June 2020, we launched our Wellbeing Support Network, MIIndful Manchester. The programme expanded our CPD programme to include mental health topics, wellbeing activities and the introduction of our Wellbeing Supporters.

The Wellbeing Supporters have been trained in Mental Health First Aid. The group are here to support our members.

Talk to us. Anything you wish to share is treated confidently. We appreciate that many companies have their own in-house Mental Health First Aiders, but we also recognise that you may not be comfortable speaking with a colleague about personal matters. Our supporters are there to bridge that gap. They can offer support, guidance and sign-posting to more specialist support agencies, if required.

Wellbeing Supporters biographies and contact details can be found here. You can start your initial contact by email (or by phone if number supplied), make contact and decide the best time for both parties if you would like to exchange numbers and talk on the phone instead.
