MHFA Adult 2-Day Course - Mental Health First Aid training

Become a certified Mental Health First Aider

Learn how to identify, understand, and help somebody experiencing a mental health challenge.

Mental Health First Aid is an accredited, evidence-based course which teaches people how to identify, understand and help a person who may be developing a mental health issue.

In the same way as we learn physical first aid, Mental Health First Aid enables you to recognise those early warning signs of mental ill health and offer that crucial initial support.

You'll learn how to:

Spot the early signs of a mental health problem

Feel confident helping someone experiencing a mental health problem

Provide help on a first aid basis

Help prevent someone from hurting themselves or others

Help stop a mental illness from getting worse

Help someone recover faster

Guide someone towards the right support

Reduce the stigma of mental health problems

The MHFA Standard course usually takes place over 2 full days.

At the end of the course…

You'll receive a MHFA Standard manual that you can take away with you and also an attendance certificate from MHFA England to say you are now Mental Health First Aider.
