Testimonials

Each staff member has come back from their training with Illuminate absolutely blown away by the knowledge and insight they received. I cannot recommend them enough.

Illuminate are just incredibly knowledgeable and deliver content with clear authority and empathy. As I said to my colleagues at RLSS UK, Lisa is just ace!

Illuminate’s vocational rehabilitation work is considered, detailed and presented in such an authentic way.

Sending our staff on training with Illuminate was a great decision that has had tangible benefits. Not only do those who were trained feel confident to spot potential burgeoning issues, but they have the confidence to deal with them, with appropriate help and support. They have also shared their learning and understanding with the wider management team, so that others are empowered and people feel confident to talk about their mental health as they would a physical health issue. Lisa’s clear practice guidance has been very beneficial and it has led us to think carefully about how we operate as a business to ensure more positive healthy behaviours are embedded. This helps staff to engage in the company as we are caring about them too. A win win!

Delegates had the opportunities to share their thoughts and opinions in a safe and supportive environment. Their feedback highlighted how much they appreciated the opportunity to talk through challenges and subsequently felt more confident in their roles as managers.

Illuminate have provided Audley Group with Occupational Health services for three years. Services provided included pre-employment health screening, and health referrals. During that time, the team have provided an excellent service, exhibiting both great knowledge and customer care skills. Questionnaires and referral reports were always turned around in a timely manner, and were concise, informative and helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending Illuminate to a future client.

Having Lisa Whittleton on site supporting colleagues to train in mental health first aid has been an invaluable support for us here at Orbit. Our wellbeing strategy aims to create and maintain an environment that supports and improves the wellbeing of our diverse workforce. We have carefully selected mental health first aiders who have now been trained to raise awareness of those issues, manage one to one conversations effectively in a confidential space and actively participate in wellbeing campaigns across the organisation. We have built a passionate and knowledgeable team with the help of Lisa’s training and feedback suggests it has been a fundamental course to improve mental health issues in the workplace. We have also scheduled training with Lisa in delivering line management specific training within this area over the next six months, which allows our heads of service and middle managers to gain clarity on approaching colleagues and discussing issues professionally.

Hi Lisa, just want to give a small piece of feedback from the course – had an opportunity to use ALGEE already today when someone on site arrived at work full of anxiety, dug a little deeper with the ALGEE method and discovered all sorts of things going on and someone definitely in need of help and attention over the coming months. So, thank you for the very effective and helpful training that you and Ceri delivered. The work you do is great and I thank God for dedicated people like you both.
