About 2EL Training

Two ELs. One mission.

2EL Training is Ellender and Elin — two MHFA Wales trainers helping organisations build mentally healthier workplaces.

Who we are

2EL Training takes its name from its two founders — Ellender Wildey and Elin Newton. Together we deliver licensed MHFA Wales courses and specialist mental health training to organisations across Wales and beyond.

With extensive experience across corporate environments and the third sector, we bring a balanced, professional approach to mental health training. Between us we hold Master National Trainer and National Trainer status with MHFA Wales, alongside specialist qualifications in suicide first aid and prevention.

We believe everyone deserves access to mental health knowledge, and that well-trained teams build stronger, more compassionate workplaces. Our approach combines professional expertise with genuine empathy — creating safe spaces where real learning happens.
