Mental health and wellbeing resources and training

Being mentally healthy and living well is important to every single one of us - whether we are living with a mental illness or not.

Mental wellbeing awareness training

There are a range of training programmes available to help you learn more about mental health and wellbeing. The sessions aim to give you hints and tips on how to identify ways to look after yourself and others.

Connect 5

Suitable for health and social care professionals, Connect 5 is a 3 tiered evidence based training package which strengthens The Deal approach by:

  • Improving mental wellbeing, using positive, preventative approaches and conversations
  • Providing the workforce with an evidence-based tool kit, empowering individuals to remain well for longer, and to return to wellness sooner
  • Builds a culture of self-management through life skills and cognitive behaviour techniques.
