MHFA England Impact Report 2019

Focusing at board level on mental health and wellbeing, in management and workplace culture, is the right way to do business. We want all leaders and managers to take active steps to support their employees’ mental health. We can generate a significant impact in the workplace and beyond by creating a culture of wellbeing at work. The impact on employees ripples out to their friends and family, and everyone they have contact with. We can work directly with large organisations in diverse sectors from professional services and law, to councils and healthcare. We get to know every organisation to understand how they support their employee wellbeing and mental health currently.

We learn their motivations for introducing MHFA England training into the workplace, and what their vision is for their workplace culture. We discuss how our training can fit into this journey and provide tailored support to implement MHFA England training. This could be how to engage the workplace in the training or how to maintain a focus of wellbeing in workplace culture going forwards, for example. In this last year we worked directly with 364 different organisations. Our Associate Instructor Members delivered 1,160 MHFA England courses into these workplaces. Our network of independent Instructor Members delivered our courses into many more workplaces.
