We work with organisations to give workplaces the confidence to connect with their staff and to work together in a compassionate way.
Our team can deliver a range of workplace mental health training options, from 2-hour workshops and 2-day CPD-accredited courses to a bespoke set of workplace training modules tailored to your organisation.
If you are unsure about your specific requirements and where to begin, that’s ok, we can work out your training needs together.
Below are sample modules that could be included in a Platfform Wellbeing Programme. We can also cover topics not listed here. Our training has covered subjects such as suicide, bereavement, burnout, relational working, and more.
Noticing the signs early and asking how your staff really feel is key in protecting against burnout rather than a reactive approach when someone needs to take long-term sick leave. Learn about the root causes and the vital roles of communication, meaning and boundaries.
We explore how problem focused ways of working can be a barrier to thriving. This course provides an overview of our understanding of mental health and gives the knowledge and skills for how we can better support peoples’ needs through building positive relationships, recognising strengths and sharing power.
This comes from a place of empathy and understanding. It is a non-medicalised and focuses on the understanding that everything that happens to us impacts our wellbeing. Our experiences impact our mental health differently – no two people are the same, so there’s no one-size-fits-all answer.
We focus on relationships, how to humanise processes, and how to create a compassionate workplace culture. This helps ensure healthier and more nurturing environments, positive working relationships, and staff who feel valued and listened to.
Our approach goes beyond people’s past experiences. Our training courses equip staff with the knowledge they need to nurture their own wellbeing, support others, and know when to defer to specialist services.
Fabulous course. I’ve really enjoyed learning about looking at behaviours in a deeper way and learning about the secure base model. I will use this knowledge learnt in my work, my family life and be more aware to make time for myself. I will also pass on my knowledge gained today to my colleagues. Thank you ever so much.
The course was effective in giving some new perspectives on mental health and new ways of thinking about how best to support colleagues. I gained some really useful ideas for implementing a team approach, through reflection with other attendees and input from the trainer.
I thought that learning about the secure base model but in the context of organisational and team development and leadership was a unique approach and very welcomed. It sets a brilliant foundation for us in how we move forward in a compassionate way, being kind to one another.
The trainer was extremely knowledgeable about the field and when explaining, it was in a simplistic yet really informative way. I have come away from the training with so much detail and tips to help me in my personal life as well as my role.
Research indicates that when staff recognise a lack of compassion at work, they experience higher levels of work overload and burnout, which ultimately leads to poorer outcomes for organisations. A trauma-informed approach acknowledges the impact of people’s experiences and focuses on creating a safe, supportive environment. Building a culture of understanding, trust, and compassion can lead to greater employee engagement, stronger team relationships, and improved overall workplace wellbeing.
Dr Sian Mulcahy, Head of Training and Delivery, explains:
“Leaders who prioritise compassion and build trust then create environments where employees feel psychologically safe and valued, developing their confidence, job satisfaction, compassion towards colleagues, and nuturing collaboration, respect, and harmony”
