Mike Riggans

After graduating with a BSc Honours in Psychology, Mike started his journey at Herts Mind Network in 2017 as a volunteer gaining experience supporting individuals with their mental health. Since then, he has supported people with their mental health in a number of roles such as, Peer Support, Community Support, Group Facilitator and Volunteer Coordinator.

Mike’s passion for learning and training has led to becoming HMN’s Training and Learning Lead, which involves working with a variety of local and national organisations to support them in creating a healthy workplace culture that embraces mental health. He is incredibly compassionate about employee wellbeing, self-compassion and suicide prevention.

In his spare time, Mike loves to continue learning at home, experimenting with cooking, watching horror films and being consumed with the duties of looking after two very hyper kittens!
