A free mental health awareness workshop will be held in Kidderminster.

The workshop is being organised by Wendy Garrett, known as Wellbeing Wendy, a training provider for the Skillsboost programme by Worcestershire Growth Hub.

The workshop, held in conjunction with World Mental Health Day, will cover various aspects of mental health, including common conditions, breaking stigma, and sources of help and support.

This year’s World Mental Health Day theme is "time to prioritise Mental Health In the Workplace".

The online session will discuss what mental health in the workplace looks like, how to support employees, and employee wellbeing.

The workshop will be on Saturday, October 12, from 10am to 11.30am at St John Ambulance, which has provided its training room free of charge.
