Kiah's Journey at Healthy Minds

4/7/2023

 Kiah Hamilton-Adams has been involved with Healthy Minds since 2017, when she first began volunteering with us. She has been instrumental to the success of many different projects and has brought enthusiasm and drive to our team. We'll be saying goodbye to Kiah this week as she embarks on a new chapter. But first, we asked her to reflect on her journey with us and what volunteering at Healthy Minds has meant in her life.

Alongside the launch of CWS, we wanted to ensure that we were asking businesses to invest in the wellbeing of their staff using techniques we had tried for ourselves. Therefore, in November 2022 an anonymous online survey about staff wellbeing at Healthy Minds was shared with all staff.
