Organisations represented will include fire, police, ambulance, mountain, cave and lowland search and rescue, lifeboat, and coastguard services.We invite senior leaders from these organisations, those who organise and deliver wellbeing support, and volunteers themselves to attend what will be an opportunity to hear evidence of good practice, learn about current provision, and discuss how support might be further developed.The keynote address will be delivered by Gary Hayes, CEO and co-founder of PTSD999 (www.ptsd-999.com). This will be followed by an overview presentation from Laura McGladrey (Founder of Responder Alliance, www.responderalliance.com) and Gill Moreton (The Rivers Centre for Traumatic Stress, NHS Lothian). Their session will set out key principles, shared language, and a universal foundation of wellbeing practices applicable to both paid and unpaid emergency response professionals. The presentation will include learning from work and research conducted at the University of Colorado with unpaid professionals, with clear application to paid emergency response roles. The speakers will present universal principles drawn from the literature, best practice, and clinical insight, which extend beyond the context of any single organisation.Presenters from a range of emergency service wellbeing support services will then outline the support they currently provide, highlighting how their organisations have evolved and innovated in response to emerging needs. Finally, there will be an opportunity to discuss whether—and how—these key principles can be shared and embedded across UK emergency response organisations.The Emergency Responders Health and Wellbeing symposium is an annual event led by the Emergency Services Senior Leadership Board, comprising of key agencies working in and around emergency services. The Board was founded by the Prince of Wales through his Royal Foundation.We look forward to seeing you there.Target Audience: Fire, police, ambulance, mountain, cave and lowland search and rescue, lifeboat, and coastguard services.Privacy Policies:https://collegeofparamedics.co.uk/COP/COP/About_Us/Privacy_Policy.aspxhttps://www.oscarkilo.org.uk/privacy https://www.mountain.rescue.org.uk/privacy-policy/https://nationalemergenciestrust.org.uk/privacy-policy/Agenda?: 09:00 AM - 09:45 AMArrival, registration and networking?: 09:50 AM - 10:00 AMIntroduction ?: 10:00 AM - 10:30 AMKeynote - Gary Hayes, CEO and co-founder of PTSD999 ?: 10:30 AM - 11:10 AMLifelines/Responder Alliance - Laura McGladrey & Gill Moreton?: 11:10 AM - 11:50 AMRescue benevolant fund with Together All?: 11:50 AM - 12:30 PMBluelight together?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMLunch and networking?: 01:30 PM - 02:30 PMSupport for volunteers in fire, police, ambulance?: 02:30 PM - 03:40 PMSupport for volunteers in mountain rescue, coastgaurd, lifeboats?: 03:40 PM - 04:00 PMRound up and close?: 04:00 PM - 05:00 PMNetworking and departPlease note the agenda is subject to change. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/emergency-responders-mental-health-and-wellbeing-symposium-2026/100001980401027785 - **Event Categories**: health-wellness, mental-health, workshops, art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 1 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: 10 Fenchurch Ave - **lat**: 51.5125213 - **long**: -0.0817137 - **full address**: 10 Fenchurch Ave, 10 Fenchurch Avenue, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026 - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/452160da03f2da8219659fed516f310669494c3b09f34d391e13ed841fce8eeb-rimg-w1200-h675-dc443132-gmir.jpg?v=1771124950 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026 being held? - **A:** Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026 takes place on Mon, 30 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am to Mon, 30 Mar, 2026 at 05:00 pm at 10 Fenchurch Ave, 10 Fenchurch Avenue, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026? - **A:** Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026 is organized by FPA, IFE and NFCC. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Emergency Responders Mental Health and Wellbeing Symposium 2026", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/452160da03f2da8219659fed516f310669494c3b09f34d391e13ed841fce8eeb-rimg-w1200-h675-dc443132-gmir.jpg?v=1771124950", "startDate": "2026-03-30", "endDate": "2026-03-30", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/emergency-responders-mental-health-and-wellbeing-symposium-2026/100001980401027785", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "10 Fenchurch Ave", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "10 Fenchurch Avenue", "postalCode": "EC3M 5BN", "addressLocality": "London", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.5125213", "longitude": "-0.0817137" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "A collaborative seminar from The NFCC, The NPWS, Mountain Rescue, The Royal College of Paramedics, AACE, Royal Foundation and The NET.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-08", "availabilityEnds": "2026-03-30", "validFrom": "2026-04-08", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/emergency-responders-mental-health-and-wellbeing-symposium-2026/100001980401027785" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-08", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-08", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/emergency-responders-mental-health-and-wellbeing-symposium-2026/100001980401027785", "price": 0, "name": "Volunteer ticket" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-08", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-08", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/emergency-responders-mental-health-and-wellbeing-symposium-2026/100001980401027785", "price": 0, "name": "Employee ticket" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "FPA IFE and NFCC", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/fpa-ife-and-nfcc/18819660" } ] } ] ```
