The aim of the webinar is to provide an overview of the 3 conversations model as used within South Gloucestershire Council. This session will be led by Kate Davey with support from Debra Parsons.

Connect 5 is an accredited, evidence based mental health training programme relevant to the whole of the public facing workforce.

It provides participants with practical skills and competencies to confidently hold connected conversations about mental health and wellbeing in their routine practice.

It provides tools to empower others to understand, manage and improve their own mental health and resilience.

The Connect 5 Mini Module (3 hours) offers an overview of the core skills, methods and tools used to help participants feel confident engaging in a mental wellbeing conversation with those who are struggling.

Connect 5 takes the position that we don’t need to be mental health specialists to support those who are experiencing emotional and mental health problems. It is based on the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Five Ways to Wellbeing and Making Every Contact Count.
The course is accredited by the Royal Society of Public Health.

Please note you will be sent an email with a link to join the Zoom webinar the day prior to the event.

These 50 minute coaching sessions with coaches will assist council staff in coming up with strategies and action plans to maintain and build their wellbeing and resilience. Unlike counselling which provides a safe space to explore worries and concerns, these confidential coaching sessions will help staff come up with individual plans to help them build their resilience, understand what they can do to enhance their wellbeing and overcome current and future obstacles. There are activities and exercises that wellbeing coaches can also give people to work through in their own time if they would find it useful.
