Our two-day mental health first aid course will train you to become a certified Mental Health First Aider. You'll also earn a St John Ambulance Cymru certificate upon completion.
Mental Health First Aiders help foster a more inclusive and supportive environment. They also gain an understanding of relevant legislation, learn how to respond to crisis situations, signpost individuals to professional help.
This course is ideal for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of mental health and develop the skills to support their own and others' wellbeing in the workplace. Whether you're a manager, team leader, HR professional, or simply passionate about creating a supportive work environment, this training will equip you with the confidence to make a real difference.
