HRH The Prince of Wales’ Business Emergency Recovery Group is seeking 12 SMEs to join a workshop on the 1st October. The workshop will take place from 07:30 – 9:00 at Aviva, Norwich (address details to be provided to participating delegates). Breakfast will be provided.
Purpose: The purpose of the workshop is to understand what SMEs would like to help them prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies or crisis, such as flooding, extreme weather, cyber attacks and pandemic flu.
SMEs that have been both affected and non-affected by emergencies are welcome to join the session. We would like to learn about how businesses currently prepare for emergencies, understand the experiences of those affected by past events, and to share resilience resources being developed by BERG.
Why join?
It will help us identify gaps in current support, build the case for further support and ultimately provide tools to lessen the impact of emergencies on SMEs and the communities in which they rely on and operate within.
It will provide the opportunity for those businesses involved to be the first to test and take advantage of new tools and resources being developed by BERG.
RSVP: If you are an SME interested in attending or know a business who should, please send details by 18th September to Teresa Cannon, Emergency Planning Manager at Norwich City Council, ([email protected]) who will co-ordinate responses locally.

This 3-hour digital event is based on our popular face to face training. It has been tailored specifically to help you support employee mental health issues during these unprecedented times. Through guidance, discussion and activities, this interactive event will provide you with the skills and knowledge you need to confidently manage good employee mental health, both remotely and in the workplace.
Business need
The coronavirus pandemic is affecting all our lives and has presented extra challenges for those with existing mental health problems. According to the Mental Health Foundation, one in six employees experience mental ill health each year. The Centre for Mental Health has estimated that in the UK, at least half a million more people will experience a mental health difficulty over the next year. Research recently conducted by Bupa UK has confirmed an increase in mental health issues, with people more reluctant to seek help during the current climate. Managers may have an understanding of mental health, yet may be hesitant to address it, through fear of saying the wrong thing or making matters worse. However, early intervention is crucial in ensuring the individual can access the support they need to keep themselves at work and working well. This not only benefits the individual, but their team and the business. Delivered via Zoom, this event will outline the different mental ill health conditions and help you recognise the signs and symptoms. You will also learn how to engage effectively with employees at an early stage, have constructive conversations and gain an awareness of the range of practical support available for individuals. Following the event, delegates will receive a comprehensive manual which includes further advice and guidance.
All delegates will receive an electronic certificate of attendance for their participation in the training.
Suitable For
HR professionals, team leaders, supervisors and managers from all sectors of industry who are familiar with the basics but want a deeper understanding of mental health and how to manage it.
Programme
Our expert-led training sessions are designed to facilitate discussion and interaction. This event will cover:
What is mental health?
Common mental health conditions
