Building Mental Health Skills across the Industry

“I enjoyed the way the trainer presented the content. I left feeling more certain and confident. The group activities were low pressure which suits my learning style well” – Healthy Heads training participant. 

Participants consistently describe Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds’ free mental health training as practical, engaging and immediately applicable, with many saying it gives them the confidence to start conversations about mental health and better support their colleagues. 

Delivered in partnership with Lifeline Australia and the Black Dog Institute, the training equips team members and leaders from across the sector with practical, evidence-based skills they can apply both in the workplace and in everyday life. Participants learn how to recognise when someone may be struggling, have supportive conversations, respond with empathy, and connect people with appropriate support when needed.

The programs also explore strategies for creating mentally healthy workplaces, supporting team members through challenging times, understanding the important role leaders play in workplace wellbeing, and prioritising self-care while supporting others.

Thank you to everyone who participates in training and invests in building their mental health knowledge and skills. Your commitment helps create healthier, safer, and more supportive workplaces across the industry.
