Oxfordshire Mind has been commissioned by Oxfordshire County Council to deliver comprehensive and co-ordinated all-ages Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Training in Oxfordshire for professionals and volunteers.
Through a training co-ordinator, training will be targeted around unmet need and equip people with the knowledge and skills they need to help their families, friends and individuals that they work or volunteer with.
The training will be needs led, informed by local data and insight, and prioritised for those who have the most contact with the key groups identified in the Mental Wellbeing Needs Assessment. The training will be developed and tailored to compliment the County-wide efforts to support better mental health.
