Changing How We See Addiction – hosted by Clare Kenny
We all have our “thing”—alcohol, work, social media, food, shopping…
Addiction doesn’t always look like what we’ve been taught to expect.
To mark Alcohol Awareness Week, we’re running a free 30-minute webinar exploring how addiction shows up in everyday life—and how we can better understand, support and shift our relationship with it.
Led by workplace wellbeing strategist and coach Clare Kenny, this powerful session will unpack:
✅ Clare’s personal story of addiction
✅ The science of why we numb
✅ Why drinking culture and “coping” behaviours are often normalised
✅ The role of shame, vulnerability, and stigma
✅ How we trade short-term comfort for long-term dysfunction

🧠 Perfect for HR professionals, wellbeing leads, line managers, or anyone supporting others (or themselves). Please feel free to share with your network

Let’s challenge outdated thinking and build healthier relationships—with ourselves, and each other. 💬

Menopause Matters – But Does Your Workplace Know How to Support It?
We’ve come a long way in breaking taboos — but let’s be honest, menopause is still one of the least talked-about workplace issues, and for too many, it's still wrapped in stigma or brushed off with a nervous laugh and a fan.
But here's the reality:
• 1 in 10 women leave their jobs due to menopause symptoms.
• Many others suffer in silence, with impacts on confidence, performance, and wellbeing.
• And organisations lose not just talented individuals, but the wealth of experience and insight they bring.
So the question is: Are you ready to create a workplace that truly supports people through menopause?
At BMR Health and Wellbeing, we’re proud to partner with Henpicked – the UK’s leading experts on menopause in the workplace – to bring you our next Menopause Champion Training Course.
🗓 Date: 18 June 2025
🕑 Time: 2pm – 4.30pm
💻 Location: Live online session
🎓 For: Managers, HR professionals, wellbeing leads, or anyone passionate about making a difference
This interactive session goes beyond the basics:
• What menopause really looks like (it’s more than hot flushes)
• How to have confident, compassionate conversations
• The legal, practical, and cultural case for support
• Tools and frameworks to become a go-to Menopause Champion in your organisation
You’ll leave informed, equipped, and empowered — ready to spark real change in your workplace.
Let’s not wait until people are struggling or walking away. Let’s lead the way, together.

Let’s talk about the stress no one wants to talk about: money.
As Stress Awareness Month comes to a close, one theme has stood out loud and clear in conversations we’ve had with employees and employers alike:
💸 Financial stress is everywhere.
It’s the rising bills, the uncertain pay packets, the sleepless nights wondering if things will ever get easier.
And it doesn’t stay in your wallet. It shows up in mental health, productivity, focus, even relationships at work and home.
So, what can we actually do?
👉 We’ve partnered with Money First Aid to offer on-demand financial wellbeing training.

It’s practical. It’s supportive. It’s designed to help people take control!
If you’re an employer who wants to support your people better… or someone who just wants to feel a little more in control of your finances – drop us a message. We’d love to help. kirstine@bmrhealthandwellbeing.co.uk

I am absolutely delighted to have received recognition for the past 5.5 years of teaching MHFA England courses since 2019.

Having first hand lived experience of mental ill health in my direct family (My lovely uncle Fred) I understand the importance of such courses and how we can all make a difference in our society through education and understanding.

Subject: Celebrating your contribution to Mental Health First Aid

I think Ann Marie was an incredible facilitator. She was engaging, knowledgeable and gave the perfect balance of information and interaction. She made us all feel very included and supported throughout. I found her very easy to learn from and felt so interested in listening to her throughout, I have never been so tuned in. Couldn't have asked for better.
