Connect 5 Mental Health Training for Workplaces: Level 2

Connect 5 is a Mental Health promotion training programme giving skills and confidence in having effective conversations about Mental Health

Connect 5 is a mental health promotion training programme based on the latest evidence base. Evaluation has shown it increases the confidence and core skills of frontline staff so they are more effective in having conversations about mental health and wellbeing. It has been designed to help people manage stress and distress and increase their resilience and mental wellbeing through positive change. The Connect 5 programme is an incremental three day programme.

Level 2 builds on the learning from level 1 and offers brief wellbeing advice to help participants develop their understanding, skill and confidence to work with and improve the mental health and wellbeing. Participants will learn how to support greater insight into experiences of stress and distress and how to help people take first steps to make themselves feel better. Not all delegates need to complete all 3 sessions, as this does depend on job role and training needs. However, you must have attended a level 1 session before attending this course.

This training session is free to attend for people who live or work in Medway. Please do not book on to this training if you are based outside of this area.  Spaces on this course are primarily for businesses working with the Medway Healthy Workplace Programme.  If your workplace is not enrolled in the programme, your request to attend may be refused.  If you are not sure if your workplace is part of this programme please contact workplacehealth@medway.gov.uk

Please be advised that you can attend each Connect 5 session once only. Once you have completed each session, it does not need to be repeated.

This space is for the named attendee only. Please do not swap your place with another colleague or send the link to anyone. If you no longer need your space, then please let us know so we can invite the replacement delegate, otherwise they will not be granted access.
