It has been made possible by Director Tabby Kerwin thanks to the success of its December 'Jingle on the Mind' event.

Free places

Tabby Kerwin told 4BR: "The donations from this event meant we can offer five free mental health awareness training places worth £625 and also support the fantastic charity Mind, with a donation of £50."

The awareness course is a 4-hour online course focusing on stress, stigma and self-care.
