Speaker

Russ Magnall, Wellbeing Coach, Safe & Sound Wellbeing

Russ spent his whole life studying what works and what doesn’t when it comes to building mental strength. Safe and Sound shares all this knowledge and experience with you and demonstrates how the mentally strongest men and women on the planet thrive during their toughest times.

​ A combination of lived experience, academic insight and knowledge gained during thirty-years as a front-line police officer demonstrates what works, to help others develop the same skills in this new and exciting approach to wellbeing training.

​Russ delivers nationally as an associate for the College of Policing and as a founder member of the Greater Manchester Police Wellbeing Board, implemented the force wellbeing plan in 2011, and was awarded for designing and delivering the Bee Well programme for Greater Manchester blue light services in 2017: a comprehensive strategic and tactical plan supporting emergency services following the terrorist attack at the Manchester Arena.
