Strongmind Resiliency Training Limited

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

Strongmind is owned by a veteran and army wife of 43 years.  All our office staff, and even some of our associate trainers are army spouses, indeed it is the main thing we look for on CVs when we recruit.  Why? Because we understand that army families who have traditionally moved round every two years or so, have had to sacrifice their career to allow their serving partner to excel in theirs.  Families get jobs wherever they are posted, whatever is on offer in the locality, and that tell us a lot.  You are hardworking, adaptable, you can bring up children as a single parent for most of the time, you can manage the house, you can move house on your own with the children and all the other obstacles that makes life ‘interesting’.  You can plan ahead, finding new schools for the kids, getting all your utilities shut off at one end and opened at the other.  All those address change cards that need to be sent out, all whilst juggling work, children’s social calendars and the cars MOT, whilst the husband is away somewhere possibly dangerous.  You have a sense of humour (it’s compulsory with the lifestyle), you have organisational abilities you don’t realise, and management skills that most would be envious of. This is why we employ military families.

About us

Strongmind delivers expert training in mental health awareness, personal resilience, suicide awareness and trauma management.

Together we work to help managers understand the role they play in creating mentally healthy and positive workplaces. Our team will show your staff how to best support their peers and themselves in difficult times. At Strongmind we are proud that we work to help those in the toughest jobs, where there are high levels of stress and exposure to traumatic stress.

Helping you to make a difference.

Staff and colleagues who are struggling with their mental health are often reluctant to seek professional help. Strongmind train your staff, colleagues, and managers to have those difficult conversations, which can encourage early help seeking, and support those in need.

Where people have been exposed to traumatic events, we train you to deliver structured risk assessments, so that those in need of help are spotted and properly supported at an early stage. Our courses have received excellent feedback and not only will our tried and tested methods improve your knowledge and understanding around mental health, they will provide structured procedures that can be used after critical events.
