Showing Up for Communities: Reflections from Stevenage - Harmless By Helen Birch (Training & Education Officer) Recently, I had the privilege of stepping out of the training room and into the heart of the community.

And for many people, especially adults, it’s something that […]

Digital Coffee and the Quiet Weight of Remote Work - Harmless By Megan Dooley (Training & Education Officer) I work remotely in suicide prevention. However, I am not client-facing – I work as a Training and Education Officer. The role has many different parts, but at its core, my team and I deliver training sessions (in person and online) teaching people about the complexities of suicidality, […]

Working remotely in an emotionally demanding field can sometimes feel isolating. For this week's blog, our colleague Megan explains how our training team shares a digital coffee – a no-agenda virtual catch up to decompress, connect and share the load.
