Mental Health First Aid Training

The accredited training is engaging, practical, and discussion based. We use a combination of workbooks, group discussions, case studies and role plays to keep candidates connected throughout the training session. With the experience of the trainers, combined with effective training approaches, ensures participants get the best knowledge in this field. This allows participants to engage with the training, asking practical questions specific to their business or life experiences.

Participants can learn about how to manage their own mental health and clearly identify pathways that lead to unhealthy coping, for themselves as well as others. We train participants to recognise, support and understand the development of mental health conditions for those who may need it.
