A mentally healthy workplace is good for wellbeing and as Deloitte have reported poor mental health costs employers £56 billion every year, it’s good for business too. By training your people to have mental health first aid skills, they’ll learn to be a first point of contact for someone who may be experiencing poor mental health. From day-to-day wellbeing conversations to crisis situations, this two-day course provides the knowledge and skills to confidently support colleagues when they need it most and signpost to further resources. With our Mental Health First Aid course training continues long after the course comes to an end, with continuous support provided for your MHFAiders well beyond initial certification. MHFAiders are invited to become members of the Association of Mental Health First Aiders, so you can be confident they have the tools they need to carry out their roles effectively.
