Building Healthier Teams is about connecting first-line managers across the Trust and creating a community of leaders who can learn from each other and support each other on the go.

We’re creating regular digital content to motivate, support and inspire you. We’ll be telling the best stories of what people like you across the Trust are making happen in their teams. The whole idea is to do something that means your development and growth as a leader won’t be ‘sink or swim’ but will keep building over time… and that way, we can all work together, to get better together and make something happen together.
