About this course
This one day course qualifies you as an MHFA Champion, giving you:
- An understanding of common mental health issues

Who should attend?
This course is suitable for all adults, Line managers and staff who want to gain the necessary skills to have a non-judgmental conversation, recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health issues and resources for help and support.

Feedback
“I’ve just finished a hugely useful, engaging, informative and interactive mental health first aid course with Paula, who navigated some really difficult subjects so well, and facilitated such an open environment for everyone to share their own experiences. I’ve never known such camaraderie on a public course, and despite the sensitive subject matter we even managed a few giggles along the way! I’d have no hesitation in recommending Paula as a trainer to others”
