Want To Know More About... evaluation of the Leeds Mindful Employer Network
Mon, 1 Jun 2026, 11am to 12:30pm
The Leeds Mindful Employer Network, commissioned by Leeds City Council, Public Health and delivered by Leeds Mind, supports employers in Leeds to champion positive mental health at work. This unique Network puts the city at the forefront of initiatives to develop healthy workplace culture, tackle stigma and promote positive mental wellbeing in the workplace. The Network is an inclusive space for employers to share good practice, access peer support, and benefit from practical tools and guidance to build mentally healthier workplaces.
An evaluation of the Mindful Employer Network has recently been undertaken by the Public Health Intervention Responsive Studies Teams (PHIRST) at the University of Edinburgh to evaluate how different types of employers make use of the Network and how they translate the Network resources into action. The evaluation addresses the perceived impact, benefit, and challenges of the Network to understand how it could be improved to increase engagement and impact.
This online session will:
- provide insight to the Leeds Mindful Employer Network
- share information on how the PHIRST team approached the evaluation and the benefits of this type of research
- highlight the perceived impact, benefits, and challenges of the Network from the lens of existing and potential members
- share recommendations to improve and increase Network engagement
The webinar will be of interest anyone who would like to find out more about the Leeds Mindful Employer initiative and how this benefits organisations across Leeds, as well as those who are responsible for the co-ordination, delivery, and evaluation of their own Network.
The session will be delivered by Leeds City Council Public Health, in partnership with Leeds Mind and the PHIRST evaluation team.
