Would you like to increase your confidence to support others with their mental health? Our Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training is a fantastic way to develop your skills and knowledge to help those who might be struggling with mental ill health.
MHFA is a nationally recognised certification which has been created by Mental Health First Aid England. These courses have been designed to provide a safe space where people can learn more about mental health – challenging misconceptions whilst empowering people to better understand what someone who is experiencing a mental health problem may be feeling.
Each course focuses on exploring the practical steps we can take to support others by guiding participants through risk-assessment questions, and ways we can proactively encourage someone who is struggling to engage with support.
At Mid Kent Mind, we are proud to offer both the Adult and Youth Mental Health First Aid courses. You can find more information on these courses below:
