Event Details
Nathan Shearman
Nathan has been working in the mental health sector for over 10 years, firstly as a qualified psychotherapist from the Sherwood Institute in Nottingham, and then as a qualified mental health trainer. He joined Red Umbrella in 2019 as a trainer and therapist, working his way up to managing director at the start of 2025.
Nathan’s passion for mental health is born out of personal experience, and a deep desire to see a change in mental health stigma in the workplace, which still exists despite our best efforts. To that end, Nathan will be speaking about some of the small, practical steps that businesses can take to help create a more positive, healthy mental wellbeing culture in our businesses.
