Our mind is at the very centre of who we are and how we relate to others. Our mental health doesn’t leave itself at the door when we arrive at work. It shapes who we are as employees as well as in our wider lives.
Some people naturally cope well with the structure of working life, and some people need more guidance in order to reach their potential and thrive at work and in life.
How do we support and guide employees who are struggling with their emotional or mental health? What should we say and what support is there for people who need more psychological help than we can offer?
We invite you to join our two-day certified Mental Health First Aid training course, for a small group of 10 delegates, in central London on 6th and 7th June 2018.
Mental Health First Aid Two Day training course (MHFA) qualifies participants as certified Mental Health First Aiders:
- An in depth understanding of adult mental health and the factors that can affect wellbeing
- Practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues
- Confidence to step in, reassure and support a person in distress
- Enhanced interpersonal skills such as non-judgemental listening
- Knowledge to help someone recover their health by guiding them to further support
Learning takes place across four manageable sessions across two days. Through a mix of group activities, presentations and discussions, each session is built around a Mental Health First Aid action plan. The course will be run by our certified and highly experienced MHFA trainer, David Robinson.
The course is over two full days, 6th and 7th June from 9.30am to 5pm. The cost is £350 per delegate.
Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to book yourself or any colleagues onto the course.
We also offer a range of one hour workshops for line managers or for your wider group of employees:
