Instructor Profile
Personal Details
I am a passionate individual who always delivers training with energy and enthusiasm, training should be fun but transferable, Mental Health is a serious issue but it can still be delivered in a way that is enjoyable. I pride myself on building strong relationships with all the people I train.
I have also been a Samaritans Telephone volunteer since 2012 and am also the Director of Training for the Herefordshire Samaritans responsible for training all new volunteers
I have lived experience of mental health issues and know just how bad things can get for people, I am passionate about making people's lives better and reducing down suicide
Work Experience
I started my career in the Police Force before Moving to work for The Leadership Trust as a Course Director and Key Account Manager, during my time at the Trust I ran all of their open leadership courses as well as numerous bespoke and tailored courses all around Leadership and Teambuilding.
I was responsible for co designing courses with clients, courses that were one off solutions to two year programmes with multiple attendees. I was also responsible for managing these accounts and ensuring that the customer was happy.
In 2017 I made the decision to change direction and trained to be an Adult Mental Health First Aid Instructor and set up my own business to do this alongside leadership training and also getting qualified to be a Civil and Commercial Mediator, to date I have run over 600 MHFA courses and am completely passionate about the courses and the positive impact it has on people who attend.
