About
This one day course is aimed at frontline staff who are seeking to develop a better knowledge and understanding of their own wellbeing and how to maintain good mental health. It provides an introduction to identifying ways in which one’s own mental health may be impacted by stressors and how to address this through using the WRAP techniques.
This course can also be used throughout schools as the techniques are simple, safe and effective. The course is equally relevant for staff working in small businesses through to corporate organisations, the third sector or voluntary organisations who have a group of people to put forward for training.
