Peer Support Networks:

Empowering Your Workplace with

Sustainable Mental Health Support

At CoLiberate, we understand that the mental health of our team is a shared responsibility. That’s why we offer customised solutions to help organisations like yours build resilient, supportive work environments through Peer Support Networks.



What is a Peer Support Network?

A Peer Support Network is a group of trained employees within your organisation who are equipped to offer mental health support to their colleagues in a safe, confidential, and caring way. These employees, sometimes called Peer Supporters or Wellbeing Champions act as approachable resources for others, providing early intervention and fostering a culture of care throughout the workplace. The network doesn’t replace professional support but offers a vital first line of support – a bridge to further support – and helps reduce stigma around mental health conversations.

The Benefits of a Peer Support Network in Your Workplace

  • Improved Mental Wellbeing: Employees feel supported, understood, and less isolated, fostering a healthier workplace overall.
  • Reduced Absenteeism & Turnover: With a supportive environment, employees are more likely to stay engaged, reducing burnout and turnover.
  • Empowered Employees: Peer supporters gain confidence and leadership skills, while others feel comfortable reaching out when they need help.
  • Stronger Company Culture: A proactive approach to mental health encourages openness, trust, and respect, strengthening your organisation’s culture.
  • Increased Productivity: A well-supported team is a more empowered and productive team—employees are better able to focus and perform when they feel safe and valued.
