Churches & Charities
Mental Health TrainingFront line organisations
Food banks, soup kitchens, asylum- seeker support and other community work puts churches – and many charities – on the front line. Yet keen volunteers often find themselves out of their depth when it comes to mental health issues.
We need to change this; in this vital area we need to know exactly what we are doing, raise our standards and keep them high. Every church or charity needs people who can competently support individuals with a mental health problem, identify what it is, provide reassurance and encourage them to seek professional help.
I’m personally very committed to churches and charities, working to support myself with commercial training so that I can offer the same thing to community organisations at lower – and sometimes no – cost. So talk to me about your training needs and how I can come alongside to support the tremendous work that you do!
Keeping it together
