Resources for Offset Productions

What other businesses have said

  • "Fremantle Media engaged Screen Well to deliver two Mental Health First Aid workshops in 2023, the workshops were a huge success, and the facilitator Ben was incredible using his deep industry experience to bring relevance to the information - his energy kept participants highly engaged and really brought the workshop to life. By the end of the sessions, our attendees reported that they are much more able to better manage their own mental health as well as having the tools to support anyone struggling at work or in their personal lives. The workshops were so highly regarded, Fremantle are rolling these workshops out again in 2024. Having Mental Health First Aiders on all our Productions are now intrinsic to the way we operate.”
