Centre for Mental Health

Events

Centre staff are active beyond the research work they undertake. Here are some of the speaking engagements that they are involved with, as well as events that we are supporting in some other way. Many of the events we run ourselves are smaller and therefore by invitation only, and so don't appear here.

1 March 2012, London

Jan Hutchinson will be leading a 'Training for Line Managers' workshop at a one-day conference, When Work Relationships Break Down, which will be chaired by Bob Grove. Visit Centrevents website for further information.
