Evaluation of Mind's Blue Light programme
IES was commissioned to evaluate the work and wellbeing strand of Mind’s ‘Blue Light’ initiative, which aims to improve the awareness and management of the mental health of employees in the emergency services.
The work involved surveying participants in a training programme, as well as in-depth qualitative work with key Blue Light service stakeholders, including staff members with a history of/currently dealing with mental health issues themselves.
The evaluation supported Mind in continuing to develop and improve its support offer to employers.
