We're Supporting Dorset Mind

We have linked up with Dorset Mind to support the charity and help them raise funds.

For a period of three months starting on 1st August my company Salter Mediation has agreed to donate 50% of our standard mediation fees to the charity. All Dorset based businesses have to do is inform us that they would like us to donate to Dorset Mind at the same time as they appoint us to mediate and we will then donate 50% of the fee for our time to the charity.

I believe people are becoming more aware of mental health issues, especially in the workplace. As a business mediator I wanted to try to help. Dorset Mind are now establishing themselves in West Dorset and demand for their services is increasing. I’ve been thinking of ways I can help them and the simplest option is to make a donation every time we are appointed to handle a Dorset based business case. After that I’ll do the rest.

Marianne Storey, CEO of Dorset Mind added “We are very grateful to Brendan for deciding to make this bold and generous move to raise the profile of mental health in Dorset. Difficulties with mental health at work are increasing with people often working long hours, and feeling stressed and anxious because of heavy responsibilities. The stigma of talking about how we are feeling and what we are experiencing is still an enormous problem that stops people seeking help. With people like Brendan opening up conversations with businesses in Dorset, we can start to break down that stigma and start to reach people who need our support.”
