8 Hour First Aid Course

When witnessing somebody who is struggling with their mental wellbeing, it can be sometimes difficult to know what to do, what to say or how to help.  As a consequence some people, therefore, worry about saying or doing the wrong thing, however, it is important not to wait, giving an individual the support they need is not only crucial but essential to a person’s recovery.

Our one-day Mental Health First Aid course has been designed to help people recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health and how to implement strategies to support those who are affected by it. Our course aims to reduce the stigma of mental health, increase the provision of care for those suffering and provide clear and informative information on wide-ranging conditions to those who may otherwise not know about them.

Our experienced course providers will inspire and promote learning through a wide range of practical activities and continuous observation, leaving the course confident and with the skills to start a difficult conversation, provide support strategies and be able to signpost a person towards professional help.
