<p><strong>Mental health at work </strong></p>
<p>Derby’s Mental Wealth initiative was kicked off by Rail Forum Midlands in January 2019. The founder, Wendy McCristal, Head of Consultancy at Tracsis, founded the Mental Wealth initiative after experiencing first-hand the effect that poor mental health can have on wellbeing and productivity. She is keen to share her experiences to help individuals and businesses to negotiate and adapt to this new growing challenge. The Mental Wealth workshops, which Porterbrook is hosting for its employees, show how small steps, for instance by using “Tea & Talk” and “Overwhelm First Aid” can positively impact productivity and wellbeing of staff. </p>
