A Tyneside workplace consultancy is set to grow with the help of a five-figure investment from the North East Small Loan Fund.
Gateshead based Talk Works aims to help improve the mental health and well-being of individuals and organisations by delivering access to therapy, e-learning and training services both in person and online. The firm’s practitioners work alongside HR departments, occupational health teams and business managers to help employees work well, feel well and engage well at work.
Now the company has worked with Newcastle-based regional fund management firm NEL Fund Managers to bring in the £50,000 investment, which will support a new business development and marketing drive, as well as the recruitment of the additional staff required to meet growing client demand. Four new jobs will be created within its head office team, while it is also looking to expand the network of specialist practitioners that support the delivery of its services.
