How Our Training Supports Your Employees and Strengthens Your Business
A mentally healthy workplace leads to higher productivity, lower absenteeism and stronger employee engagement. Our training equips teams with the skills to support colleagues, reduce stress and create cultures where wellbeing thrives, benefiting both your people and your business.
Recent data from the EAPA UK shows that concerns about children's mental health have become one of the most common reasons employees contact assistance programmes. Furthermore, research by Deloitte found that 46% of working parents worry about their child's mental health, with half reporting that this affects their work performance.
By booking training with Understanding Minds, you're building a more resilient workforce whilst helping address challenges affecting many employees at home.
Engage Your Team, Support Your Community
Businesses booking training can nominate a primary school to be offered the free wellbeing workshops, either by asking staff to vote or by choosing a local school to their business location.
