Mental Health Series

A four-part workshop series to strengthen mental health awareness, prevention, and support across your organisation.

Mental ill health is now the leading cause of long-term sickness absence, with UK employees taking an average of 9.4 sick days last year - up from 7.8 in 2023 (CIPD, 2025). Yet too often, conversations about mental health only happen once someone is already struggling.

Our Mental Health Series provides a proactive approach, helping staff develop understanding, recognise early warning signs, and build practical skills to care for themselves and each other.

Why Choose the Series?

The 2025 CIPD Health & Wellbeing Report highlights:

  • Mental ill health is the leading cause of long-term absence, cited by 41% of employers.

  • 64% of organisations report stress-related absence, yet only half feel their efforts to reduce stress are effective.

  • Over a third of organisations remain reactive rather than preventative.

This series shifts the focus towards prevention, equipping staff with practical strategies to manage stress, prevent burnout, and support each other - closing the gap between wellbeing intentions and real impact.
