Mental health touches every workplace.
Colleagues may be managing pressure, anxiety, low mood or personal challenges
that are not always visible. Many people want to help, but simply don’t feel confident starting the conversation.
Are you OKAY? is a practical, compassionate training day designed to give
individuals the confidence, awareness and tools to respond to mental health
concerns appropriately and supportively.
This accredited CPD course creates a safe, respectful space where delegates can
learn, reflect and build skills they can immediately apply within their workplace and
wider life.
Who this course is for
This course is suitable for adults aged 18 and over and is ideal for:
- Managers and team leaders
- HR professionals
- Workplace wellbeing leads
- Colleagues who want to feel more confident supporting others
- Organisations committed to creating a healthier working culture
No prior knowledge is required.
What the course covers
By the end of the training, delegates will be able to:
- Begin a conversation about mental health and wellbeing with greater
confidence - Recognise the signs and indicators of mental ill health or emotional distress
- Listen effectively and respond in a calm, supportive way
- Understand how to guide someone towards appropriate help
- Identify local and national sources of support

- Understand the NHS England Five Ways to Wellbeing

How the training is delivered
The course is delivered face-to-face in a supportive group setting, allowing time for
discussion, reflection and shared learning.
Cohort sizes are intentionally kept small to ensure a personal and engaging experience. This allows delegates to ask questions, explore scenarios and build genuine confidence in a safe environment.
The training is delivered by Sarah Henry, an accredited and experienced mental health trainer with extensive experience working with organisations, schools and leadership teams.
