Welcome to the HUBBlog!

The 'HUBBlog' is the online 'newspaper' for HUBB Mental Health. We want to keep you updated with what we 'Hubbites' are up to as well as any information that we believe will be of use to anyone involved in Mental Health, Wellbeing, Recovery and related services.

HUBB is not just about 'recovery' and support for those dealing with mental ill health. We are passionate about prevention. Programmes like Mental Health First Aid are particularly appropriate for business - especially in the current economic and social cliamte. Helping spot the signs and symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression and implementing strategies to promote a mentally and emotionally resiliant workforce and society will be vital for all our futures.

Further information can be found on the
HUBB Website.

Please comment and contribute! We look forward to hearing from you.

MHFA New Website Launched


The Mental Health First Aid England website has undergone a complete refurbishment. It covers comprehensive information on the Mental Health First Aid and Youth Mental Health First Aid Programmes along with supporting material around them.


HUBB has four instructors listed on their 'Instructor Database' - Jenny Gray, Pam Macklin, Lynn Burling and Rob Thomas. We will be listing our MHFA and YMHFA programmes on the MHFA England website as well as updating progress on our own HUBB site.

HUBB & Advantage - accreditation for Training Programmes

HUBB is now approved as an Accreditied Training Centre through Advantage - an independent accreditation organisation. This will lead to HUBB being able to offer a recognised certification process for our own unique training programmes, including 'Mental Capacity (2005)', 'Deprivation of Libery Safeguards' and 'Recovering Jane'.
