About
Who We Are
We deliver mental health, mental health recovery and suicide prevention first aid education and training.
In the U.K 1-4 people will experience a common mental health related issue (such as anxiety or depression) every year.
It is more important than ever to understand what mental health is, how to support a person in recovery and how we can all play a part in suicide prevention.
We'll teach you the skills needed to feel comfortable speaking about and listening to people with mental health, mental health recovery and thoughts of suicide.
You'll be able to identify the signs and symptoms of poor mental health, and to provide the correct support and guidance to those who are affected.
Mindcanyon are UNIQUE in that we offer one day training workshops in mental health recovery and suicide prevention first aid training.
The Cost Of Poor Mental Health To Your Business
Too many employers are taking a ‘tick-box’ approach to mental health in the workplace, rather than understanding and acknowledging the true value of employees and their personal wellbeing.
The latest estimates from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) show: the total number of cases of work-related stress, depression or anxiety in 2017/18 was 595,000, a prevalence rate of 1,800 per 100,000 workers, stress, depression or anxiety accounted for 44% of all work-related ill health cases and 57% of all working days lost due to ill health.
The total number of working days lost due to this condition in 2017/18 was 15.4 million days, this equated to an average of 25.8 days lost per case.
Research shows staff with lower stress, levels take fewer days off; they're also less likely to make mistakes, make better decisions and feel more motivated.
The government Thriving at Work Report states that ‘Poor mental health costs UK employers between £33 billion and £42 billion every year’, and that, ‘ workplace interventions to improve employee mental health yields a return on investment between £1.50 and £9 for every £1 spent.
Good mental health is the future for your workforce, but getting it right – and with integrity – is crucial. And this conversation is an ongoing cultural one: not just a sticking plaster applied only at a time of need – or after it is too late.
We understand this, and it's why we help you.....
- Understand the true value of your employees by providing them with tools to keep them happy and healthy
- Make mental wellness as much of a priority as physical wellness within workplaces
- Devising genuine employee support strategies
- Maintaining workplace wellbeing as a long-term strategy
We help people stay happy and healthy at work, by raising awareness around the connections between physical and mental health, while fostering safe, ethical and compassionate environments for individuals.
