Healthy Working Lives are looking for people with experience of mental health problems who are willing to share their experiences - good or bad - of work. You may, for example, have a story about a supportive employer who made changes to enable you to stay at work; or, perhaps, you went through a difficult situation that led to a long absence. The testimonials will be filmed and used, as part of the Mentally Healthy Workplace Training programme, to train employers across Scotland. Filming is likely to take place in Edinburgh during the last two weeks of May and volunteers will receive travel expenses.
