Mental Health First Aid training

Embedding Mental Health First Aid training into your organisation encourages people to talk more freely about mental health. It helps to promote early intervention which in turn enables recovery, reduces stigma, and creates a positive culture.

Our programme of Mental Health First Aid qualifications provides learners with a breadth of knowledge and skills and equips them with an understanding of mental health and the factors that may affect wellbeing.

Learners are taught how to spot signs and symptoms of common mental health issues, provide support and reassurance, and guide a person to seek the professional support they might need to recover.
