Fiona Kidd Email & Phone Number

'We’ve been lucky enough to have Fiona run three sessions for our organisation so far, training leaders and other staff with an interest in mental health. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive from everyone that has attended the training. I found the training to be beneficial from a personal perspective and have used some of the training in both my professional and personal relationships. Fiona is a wonderful facilitator that brings with her a wealth of experience and knowledge, whilst approaching this very heavy topic with compassion and respect. I would highly recommend her for any organisation wanting to train their staff in the field of mental health first aid.' Bronwyn Thurling, Learning & Development Officer RSPCA - February 2021Some people are born optimistic, but hope is made, it’s the learned ability to see that the future can be better. If we can sense the possibility of things, we will behave as if it matters. Hi, I am the founder of Grace of Eights Mental Health Education. I aim to educate and reduce stigma about mental health and introduce lived experience perspectives on what works. My workshops explore innovative evidence-based approaches to mental health and wellness. Mental health can be an emotive and challenging topic, Grace of Eights’ approach is to create a safe and engaging learning environment to explore topics together, peer to peer. There is no magic wand when it comes to dealing with the troubled or troubling thoughts, emotions and behavior which intermittently plague us all; there is just more skillful and less skillful ways to deal with mental distress. I do this by providing quality face to face workshops and education on Mental Health First Aid, mental health awareness and personal development. As an educator, I'm in the service of providing hope for change; both personally and systemically.
