Promote good mental health by developing the positive aspects of work and the strengths of employees.
Address mental health problems regardless of cause.

"We in Honeywell Aerospace recognise that mental health is as important as
physical health and we have been working closely with Anne-Marie and unlock
your wellbeing to enable us as a multinational organisation to move forward in
this space.
We have trained mental health first aiders at many sites as well as working on
a holistic first aid programme and procedures where mental and physical
health support will be combined.
Naturally, we could not have progressed without the support and expertise of
Anne-Marie.
She has been inspirational and whichever site she went to, we have received
glowing reports on her dedication to, and knowledge of the subject.
Our plans are to continue engaging with unlock your wellbeing so we can have
a leading best practice around mental health and genuine support for our
employees."

"Anne-Marie’s natural, easy style of training has meant word of mouth has been the best way in encouraging employees to attend her sessions, in the last couple of years she has delivered a range of subjects including Mental Health First Aid, I-act training for managers, Mental Health Awareness, Sleep Hygiene and Happiness, all with excellent feedback.
In ensuring a culture at Sun Life which holds employee health and wellbeing as priority, Anne-Marie has been fundamental in helping us achieve this. "

“Over the last two years Anne-Marie has worked with Ethical Reading extensively on our Workplace Wellbeing initiative, presented several meetups and is a great ambassador for us. Her input is always constructive and of a high standard and feedback on her meetup presentations is consistently outstanding. She is highly effective at what she does and we love her dearly!”

"Anne-Marie worked with us to deliver a number of half-day Mental Health Awareness sessions
earlier this year. Staff responded really well to her down-to-earth and authentic style and we had
very positive feedback. During the Covid-19 pandemic she delivered us a series of one hour zoom
sessions focusing on wellbeing, resilience and happiness - and practical steps you can take to improve
these - which worked really well and were again very well-received by staff."
Surrey Heath Borough Council
"To this day probably the most inspiring course I have ever attended and the only course
that has changed me as a person What Anne-Marie gave us all was hope and understanding and the passion that we could support others. She is truly worth her weight in gold…..and someone in my lifetime I will never forget."

"Anne-Marie has worked with the WAM recovery college since the early days in 2018 as a tutor of the Happiness and WRAP courses. These courses are always well received by our students and we have found some of our best attended sessions have been the ones where she is the tutor. We have enjoyed collaborating with Anne-Marie as she is highly organised in her approach and we can always guarantee best value from her services. We can see how dedicated she is and works to a very high standard which means we always have positive outcomes in terms of the overall benefits to our students."
