Mental health training is one of our keyways of changing the experience of people affected by poor mental health in our Faith community Groups. We aim to enable people to feel more comfortable and confident to talk about mental health and know more about how to respond when problems arise within churches.
We believe that in these new and challenging times it is more important than ever that we talk about our mental health and wellbeing in places of worship.
