MEN’S RADIO STATION AND WOMEN’S RADIO STATION COLLABORATE WITH
MENTAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS IN BUSINESS TO OFFER
£100,000 FREE MENTAL HEALTH COURSES FOR NHS & FRONTLINE WORKERS
It is time to give back, to say ‘thank you’ and to show our appreciation in a practical, supportive manner. We’ve all clapped on our doorsteps, but as the lockdown slowly eases, but with the thought of a second wave of Coronavirus potentially looming, NHS and frontline staff will finally have time to reflect on their magnificent, heroic, selfless work. These tireless men and women are, like us, only human. They are not immune from the enormous stress that they have experienced nor that this can lead, directly, to mental health issues.
As our way of providing hands-on, practical help, broadcaster and writer Russ Kane and his co-founder of Men’s Radio Station and Women’s Radio Station, entrepreneur and theatre-owner Howard Jameson, have joined forces with Steve Jackson and Bernadette Bruckner, founders of Mental Health Solutions in Business to offer up to £100,000 worth of FREE accredited Mental Health awareness courses designed to help people assess their mental health and spot the signs that they or their colleagues are not coping early. NHS staff and front-line workers can select the course of their choice for no charge. There are no strings, no sign-ups, no contracts – nothing. For once it does what it says on the tin – free professional mental health courses.
It’s our way of showing our gratitude.
BRIEF BACKGROUND:
Russ Kane and Howard Jameson founded Men’s Radio Station in January 2019, exactly one year after they launched Women’s Radio Station with Penny Horner of The Jermyn Street Theatre. Both stations are on-air 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The ethos is to remove the stigma surrounding mental health issues and to create a non-judgemental space where men could truly discuss the issues that affected them most. In the UK, the suicide statistics are 80% men, 20% women. Bottling up emotions can lead to catastrophic results, hence the station’s strapline ‘Where Men Really Talk’. The reaction to M.R.S has been exceptionally positive among its world-wide audience and the medical community.
Mental Health Solutions in Business has been running successfully for many years, under the leadership of Steve Jackson and Bernadette Bruckner. Its aim is to offer training for companies own in-house staff to help identify problems and facilitate help; a ‘keep up to date’ service to ensure employers are always aware of changes to the Equality Act as they happen and give access to 24/7 professional counselling – anywhere – for their workers. Mental health in the workplace is one of the hottest topics in industry today, second only to restoring the economy after COVID-19. However, the two are integrally linked, no more so than the extraordinary stresses that NHS staff and frontline workers have endured week after week.
Full details of this ground-breaking initiative are available on both the MRS and MSBHELP.CO.UK websites.
