Georgina Godden, March on Stress Business Development Director, said: “We believe that anyone in psychological distress, whether as a result of exposure to potential trauma or the consequence of other (more day-to-day) occupational stressors, deserves access to the right evidence-based support and care in their workplace.

“Our upcoming event supports this belief and we are looking forward to the opportunity to discuss and look at evidence for mental health support at work – bringing together expert speakers and delegates to share knowledge, ideas and discussion.”
