Mental Health First Aid Champion

We all have mental health, just as we all have physical health. Mental ill-health can strike at any time and can affect people from all walks of life.

This 1-day Mental Health First Aid course will help provide a positive mental health culture within the workplace and to provide learners with comprehensive knowledge on a range of the most common mental health conditions and the skills to be able to act should a condition be suspected.

This course is for those looking to improve their knowledge of mental health conditions and to learn the skills to support their own and others’ wellbeing in the workplace. Through a mix of group activities, presentations and discussions, the course is built around a Mental Health First Aid action plan.

Please be aware that this course focuses on employees in the workplace and covers subjects that some people may find distressing, including suicide and self-harm.

We can offer this course at centres all over the UK or at your chosen premises with prices starting at £225+VATpp.
