Bespoke Training
Over half of all working days lost are due to mental health conditions. Even if work isn’t the problem, it’s often at work that the consequences are felt.
Our bespoke in-person, online, and virtual wellbeing training help you drive positive change for your business and build a better culture.
Training programmes developed around your needs
The ‘so what does this mean to me as a manager/employee in my workplace?’ piece is so often missing from generic ‘tick-box’ training. But we know that understanding the culture of an organisation is so important in ensuring training connects and is relevant and meaningful.
Oakwood develop and deliver engaging learning content specifically for your business, including your own policies and procedures so your people know exactly what is expected of them. We tailor our highly interactive wellbeing programmes to the specific challenges of your environment – including delivering in any time zone or language, and customising content to consider local cultural differences, perspectives, and relevant legislation – to ensure your people gain the knowledge and confidence they need to use their new skills straight away.

The training was engaging, accessible, informative, important and mind-broadening. We came away with a much clearer picture of how mental health issues affect people at work. The training helped to dispel the stigma and fear of mental health - giving delegates the confidence to recognise some of the symptoms and a desire to do what we can to help people through periods of mental ill-health.
Lord Simon Wolfson
CEO, Next
Oakwood's approach is highly professional and bespoke. The training I attended with them, along with the top 25 senior leaders at Barnardo's was one of the most profound learning experiences I have had in a while. High quality, fast paced, deep, challenging, thought provoking and humorous. Brilliant!
Javed Khan
CEO, Barnados
The session was a great opportunity to reflect on how and why we should always talk about Mental Health, and how we can support one another.
Nick Mackenzie
CEO, Greene King
I’ve worked with the Oakwood team on multiple projects. It’s a sad fact that violence and aggression is on the rise in the retail sector and AS Watson wanted to be proactive and give our colleagues the knowledge and tools to diffuse a potentially intense situation that could put our teams, colleagues, or visitors at risk.
Claire Reeves
People Development Content & Design Manager, Superdrug / AS Watson Group
Oakwood have completed many sessions for us since engaging with them in 2019. All course delegates praise the trainers for their professionalism, experience, and informative style; making the course easy to digest and changing their outlook on mental health. They have commenced some conflict management training, which we know will be delivered to the same standard.
Tommy Kelly
Group Health and Safety Manager, Matalan
The Oakwood team offer amazing support and guidance when needed. Oakwood were the expert friend that helped us springboard to where we are today, introducing wellbeing champions, Mental Health awareness modules, resilience content and listening groups. We have seen much stronger engagement in wellbeing content specifically and expect that to continue to grow.
Chris Britton
Head of Learning and Development, Carpetright
We were seeking a training partner with experience in delivering services to large complex retailers and one able to deliver the right level of impact across our workforce. We see great potential in using Oakwood’s services to enhance the wellbeing and care of our colleagues; making them feel more confident and able to raise issues they have in the workplace.
