Bristol Nights has launched a monthly training programme for night time workers looking for techniques to look after their own and their team’s mental health.
As part of the mental health and wellbeing at work resources through Thrive At Night, we have designed a series of specialist interactive training course, delivered for Bristol Nights by Bristol based mental health and wellbeing specialists NAOS (Bristol) CIC.
Recognising the unique challenges faced by night-time staff, Bristol Nights has collaborated with night time economy businesses, industry experts in mental health and wellbeing, and Bristol City Council’s Public Health team to create Thrive at Night. This joint venture ensures that the programme is tailored to the specific needs of night time workers, offering them the necessary tools and resources to maintain their mental health and wellbeing.
The Thrive at Night workshops encompasses a wide range of topics essential for maintaining a healthy work environment, such as anxiety and stress management, creating mentally healthy workplaces, compassionate leadership, recovering from serious incidents, and supporting employees who may be self-medicating as a reaction to stress. The deep dive session in October is dedicated to noticing and respecting differences, both in your team and in your customer base to help hospitality businesses to drive their diversity and inclusion policies with team members.
The sessions will feature practical advice and techniques to help yourself and your team members find relevant services in Bristol for longer term support and dedicated sessions for freelancers and seasonal workers at risk of burnout.
The programme, which has been almost a year in the making, also equips organisations with the necessary tools to develop and implement their own mental health and wellbeing policies.
Venues are spread across the city throughout the year to give team members access no matter which area of Bristol they are from.
