Poppy’s Apprenticeship Story

“I suggest that any young person interested in construction, just go for it. Roofing was just for me; I absolutely love it. Roofing isn’t about how much you can lift. So much of it is problem solving and technique, and it is something anyone – male or female – can do if they put their mind to it.”

Leon’s Apprenticeship Story

“In my previous role as a delivery driver, the role can be customer-facing but at most, there are a few moments on the doorstep. Now in my apprenticeship I’m working with people for weeks on end and getting to really work with people face-to-face each day is fantastic.”

Training for your Team

“The learning I got from the course will be invaluable in the workplace. Knowing how to support colleagues and identify the signs of poor mental health will be vital during this cost of living crisis. The team at Optimum Skills deliver their courses with professionalism and expertise.”

Alastair Waugh, Wellbeing Lead, Gestamp Aycliffe

“I wanted to gain a better understanding of mental health. I’ve learnt about tools to help people in crisis and about wellness action plans. I’ve enjoyed everything about the course, it has given me a better knowledge and understanding of the subject.”

Gemma, Support Worker, ROC Solid Ltd.

“Going into the course my goal was to get a base understanding of mental health in the workplace. On the course I’ve learnt how to devise an action plan and look at the work environment and changes. I’ve enjoyed getting practical ideas I can use. This will support me moving into HR.”

Kim, Admin Assistant, AAA Caring Caretaker Ltd.

“I wanted to gain insight and understand an employers role in managing mental illness. I’ve learnt about all aspects of how to help address mental health issues within the workplace and what and where stigma comes from. I’ve enjoyed attaining so much valuable information.”
