Additional Mental Health First Aiders (MHFA)

It is great to see that an additional 12 employees have now qualified as Mental Health First Aiders (MHFA). We now have 29 volunteers qualified at KCS UK & Ireland and have a plan to train more.

Mental health issues are a normal part of life. We all have a personal responsibility to look after our own wellbeing as well as the mental health of those who we work with and care for. The business understands the importance of this, and therefore we have partnered with Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) England in order to increase mental health awareness and skills across the business.

Our aim is to support employees by giving them the facts about mental health and the practical skills to support wellbeing, as we work towards building a healthier and more productive workplace, free from stigma.
