The project

Our track record
TrainAware has delivered workshops to local organisations of different sectors including, care services, voluntary sector, the public sector and local business. As we work across different sectors, we carry out an in depth consultation with our clients so we can tailor our training specifically to their individual needs.
Organisations that have participated in the past include: Connexions, the Samaritans and Jobcentre Plus, Health Protection Agency, Harrow College, Citizens' Advice Bureau, CareAssist, Stanmore College, Harrow Council, Aspire National Training Centre just to name a few.
"The personal experience of the guest speaker who is a service user was just one of the useful aspects of the training for me."
TrainAware – Mental Health Awareness Training
Are you and your staff ever in contact with people who have experienced mental distress? Have you identified a need to enhance knowledge and understanding of the issues?
Despite the increasing numbers of individuals experiencing mental ill health there is still a significant amount of stigma around seeking help. Mind in Harrow’s mental health awareness workshop will help to give those who plan, or work in front line services the tools to manage situations, raise awareness and put into practice what they have learnt.

"All my staff and myself found the training in Mental Health Awareness very useful and knowledgeable; it was something new for all of us. I have to say that Chrystelle was a very good trainer, who explained everything in great detail and answered any questions asked. I don’t think this course could have been improved in any way, as I am very satisfied."
