HEE Wider Children's Workforce Mental Health Training
The Anna Freud Centre, Charlie Waller Trust, and National Children’s Bureau are developing a mental health training for the wider children’s workforce that aims to help all workers who come into contact with children receive the same basic training in emotional health, much as we skill everyone in how to safeguard children.

Please take 5 minutes to complete a survey to indicate what you need from the training.
The survey closes on Monday 30 January.
