Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training courses teach people to spot the symptoms of mental health issues, offer initial help and guide a person towards support. Just like physical first aid, participants are taught to listen, reassure and respond, even in a crisis.

 

Mental health related absences cost UK employers an estimated £34 billion per year. 

​

By skilling your organisation in MHFA you can:

• Give your people the tools to keep themselves and their colleagues healthy

• Encourage them to access support when it’s needed, for a faster recovery

• Empower people with a long term mental health issue or disability to thrive in work

• Stop preventable health issues arising by building a supportive culture around mental health

• Embed positive, long term cultural change across your organisation 

 

Training can be delivered online or onsite. I offer a variety of courses from mental health awareness to Mental Health First Aider:

• Mental Health First Aid

• Workplace Mental Health Champion

• Higher Education Mental Health Champion

• Mental Health Awareness

• Mental Health Refresher

 

All MHFA courses offered are written and certified by MHFA England.

 

Research and evaluation shows that MHFA courses make a lasting difference in people’s knowledge and confidence around mental health. They are written by experts, grounded in research, and tested by people with lived experience of mental ill health.
