The Exchange for MHFA Champions, your space to reset returns – join us 31st July

MHFA England Online & In Person Training

Overdue a cuppa and a real conversation? The Exchange is back

Hi Reader,

Thanks for joining The Exchange. You’re now part of a growing community of MHFAiders and wellbeing leads who are changing the conversation.

We’re bringing The Exchange back — and I’d love for you to join us.

Our last session may feel like a while ago — and a lot’s happened since then. But one thing hasn’t changed: the need for safe, honest spaces where MHFAiders and wellbeing leads can breathe, reflect, and reset.

🗓 Wednesday 31 July | 4:00–5:00pm (Zoom)


🎟 Free to attend – Register here

Bring your favourite cuppa and join us for:

✔️ Real talk with people who get it
✔️ Insights you can use straight away
✔️ A fresh update from Sarah McIntosh, the new CEO of MHFA England
✔️ Space to share what’s working — and what’s not

Who it’s for:
– MHFAiders trained with MHFA England, St John Ambulance, British Red Cross, or other accredited providers
– New MHFA Leads or anyone exploring MHFA training
– People ready to stop firefighting and build sustainable support in their workplace

Whether you’re a returning friend or joining for the first time, this is your room.

Let’s keep changing the conversation — together.

Warmly,

Mike

PS: We’ve missed the familiar faces — and we’re excited to welcome new ones. There’s a seat waiting for you.

About Your Host:

I’m Mike Lawrence — Health & Wellbeing Management Consultant, certified MHFA Instructor, international speaker, and someone who knows firsthand what it’s like to fall apart… and come back stronger.

After recovering from major brain surgery, I rebuilt my life and business with one mission:
To make mental health support more human, sustainable, and effective.

I’ve trained and coached teams across the NHS, Shelter, universities, theatre groups, and frontline services — helping them build cultures of resilience, not reaction.

This isn’t theory. This is lived experience, emotional intelligence, and actionable tools — delivered with compassion and clarity.
