I have attended sessions covering both Mental Health Awareness and Personal Safety. They were very engaging, thought provoking and fun. The depth of experience and clear passion of the trainer about the subjects covered was very inspirational. I am very likely to recommend Oakwood Training to others and and already have done.

Working with Oakwood training has been an excellent experience from the moment we engaged them through to the actual training sessions being delivered to over 40 of our managers in Barnardo’s Cymru. The session itself was delivered with so much passion and understanding ensuring staff really engaged. Staff are so interested in building on their initial learning we are now looking at mental health first aid training for all our staff. For an introduction to mental health and wellbeing for everyone in the organisation I would thoroughly recommend Oakwood Training.

Working with Oakwood has been a fantastic experience. From the first time we engaged with Oakwood, they have taken time and care to understand our business, the needs of our learners and the challenges they face. The sessions are interactive, tailored, and delivered with the utmost professionalism and passion. So far, over 90 staff have attended these sessions, and 100% have said how informative & inspirational they found the training. I would highly recommend Oakwood as a provider of choice for raising awareness & understanding of this important issue in your organisation.
