Celebrating Sara and Andy: Kingfisher’s New Mental Health First Aiders
At Kingfisher (Lubrication) Limited, we pride ourselves on fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace where the well-being of our employees is a top priority. That’s why we are thrilled to celebrate the achievement of two of our team members, Sara and Andy, who have successfully completed their Mental Health First Aider (MHFA) training with St. John’s Ambulance!
Mental health is just as important as physical health, and having trained Mental Health First Aiders in the workplace ensures that colleagues have the support they need when facing challenges. Stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns can affect anyone, and it’s crucial to create a culture where people feel safe to seek help. Sara and Andy’s dedication to completing this course demonstrates their commitment to fostering a compassionate and understanding work environment.
The MHFA training equips individuals with the knowledge and skills to recognize early signs of mental health issues, provide initial support, and guide colleagues toward professional help when necessary. This training not only benefits those facing challenges but also helps in reducing stigma and encouraging open conversations about mental well-being.

Upholding our Employee Values
By having trained Mental Health First Aiders, Kingfisher is taking a proactive step toward ensuring that all employees feel heard, valued, and supported. Mental well-being plays a significant role in overall job satisfaction and productivity, and creating an environment where employees can thrive both personally and professionally is a shared responsibility. As an Employee Ownership Trust, this is a pivotal part of our company values – making employees feel heard and supported.
We want to extend our sincere gratitude to Sara and Andy for stepping up to this vital role. Their presence as Mental Health First Aiders means that employees now have trusted, approachable resources available whenever they need support.
Please join us in congratulating them on this fantastic achievement! Together, we can create a healthier, more supportive workplace.
