Speakers
Hugo Forrester
Hugo spent 15 years of his professional career in aviation, living to conformity, rules, logic and responsibility but in 2018 realised that after many years this work did not resonate with his true values of compassion, support, curiosity and connection. He now thrives as the Operations Manager at Mind Jersey and as Metal Health First Aid Instructor. In this role he pursues work based on the theory of Minority Stress and how occupying a minority group can affect someone’s mental health, having experienced the challenges of living as a man of transgender experience. He is passionate and dedicated to ensure that no marginalised community is left behind in the work that Mind Jersey undertake.'
Grant Henderson
Grant is an experienced chiropractor and office ergonomics consultant. He has over 30 years clinical experience and moved to the Channel Islands in 1992. He and his chiropractor wife Penny founded Active Chiropractic Clinic and in 2018 they relocated to the Wellness Centre at Club Soulgenic (now Anytime Fitness) in St Helier.
Beth Moore
Beth is the Executive Officer of Jersey Recovery College (JRC), a local mental health charity that provides free courses to those experiencing mental health difficulties and the people who support them. JRC has supported over 1000 local people since opening in 2017. Courses span recovery, mental illness, wellbeing and life skills. Every JRC course is delivered by two trainers – one has professional expertise in the subject matter and the other lived experience of mental illness and recovery.
Prior to setting up JRC Beth was a trustee for Mind Jersey and an Ambassador for the charity, sharing her story of mental illness to challenge stigma. Beth has worked for Macmillan Jersey and in London for a global PR company. Beth was named Inspirational Leader of the Year at 2018’s Pride of Jersey Awards and was named on the Independent’s Happy List 2019.
