Meet Eloise

I am Elly. I am passionate about helping to reduce the stigmas and discrimination that surround mental health, and supporting people to live positive and meaningful lives. With 12 years experience as a registered nurse working in the UK and abroad, I now enjoy meeting different people through delivery of the Mental Health First Aid courses, from senior managers
of international organisations to self-employed
personal trainers.

From early on in my professional life I have had an interest in overall well-being which has resulted in me always thinking about people holistically whilst caring for them, but on a personal level I have experienced a period of mental ill health myself and, unsurprisingly given the statistics, have many close friends and family members that have been affected either directly or indirectly by a range of mental health issues.
