Build a better understanding of mental health and feel more confident recognising when someone may need support.
Our interactive Mental Health Awareness half-day course is designed to give participants a practical introduction to mental health and wellbeing.
It is ideal for organisations that want to increase awareness, encourage more open conversations and help employees feel more confident recognising some of the signs that someone may be struggling.
No previous mental health knowledge or experience is required.
What will I learn?
During the course, participants will:
Develop a greater understanding and awareness of good mental health
To recognise indicators of stress and mental ill-health in both oneself and others
To consider the wider influences that can contribute to mental ill-health
To learn basic tips for support
How to look after ourselves at home and in the workplace
Who is the course for?
The course is suitable for anyone who would like to improve their understanding of mental health.
It is particularly useful for organisations looking to introduce mental health awareness across a team or wider workforce and can help create a shared understanding of how to talk about and support mental health at work.
Is this Mental Health First Aid training?
This is an awareness-level course and does not train participants to become Mental Health First Aiders.
For more in-depth training in how to support someone experiencing a mental health problem or crisis, our Adult Mental Health First Aid Wales course may be more suitable.
A note about wellbeing
Some of the topics discussed may feel sensitive or personally relevant. Participants are never expected to share personal experiences, and the course is not intended to provide therapy or personal mental health support.
