Founder, Paula Woolven, said: "having a healthy and productive team should be the aim of every business and we know the impact of the pandemic is still affecting all our mental health. Investing in wellbeing is a priority for Havens Community Hub and all its projects and partner charities. We have been able to access free training opportunities through the programme and I'm sure this will improve staff satisfaction and retention."
