Supporting people who work and volunteer for us
We have a hugely experienced and skilled team of staff and volunteers, who make things happen, deliver services and ensure the organisation is sustainable and governed effectively. The last 3 years, on top of the previous 10 years of austerity, has had an impact on our work – it is tougher to find solutions with people and if we can it probably takes longer. Burnout
for staff is real and we need to be more explicit about our commitment to staff wellbeing and self-care.
We want to ensure that people working and volunteering for Manchester Mind feel valued and appreciated, and alongside this have the skills and opportunities for continued development.
We want staff and volunteers to feel able to contribute and speak out if things do not look or feel right.
