Hi Simon, John and I attended your first aid course on Friday 12th of June 2026. We found it extremely good. Just to say we have organised over the years first aid courses for our Profession, so we have been able to see how good your teaching is. It’s very clear for people who have never done it and very friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending you in the future. With very best wishes and blessings Joyce and John Harrop.Posted on Google Emma TownleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic training course.

Our Mental Health First Aid training courses equip individuals, managers and employees with the knowledge and practical skills needed to recognise the signs of poor mental health, start supportive conversations and guide people towards appropriate help.
Just as traditional first aid can help save lives in a physical emergency, Mental Health First Aid enables people to respond confidently when someone may be experiencing a mental health challenge. Early intervention can help reduce stigma, encourage people to seek support and prevent situations from escalating into a crisis.
Our accredited First Aid for Mental Health courses are ideal for workplaces, schools, charities, public sector organisations and community groups looking to promote positive mental health, improve staff wellbeing and create a more supportive environment for everyone.
By increasing awareness of common mental health conditions and providing practical strategies for offering support, Mental Health First Aid training helps organisations develop a healthier, safer and more resilient workforce.
“I found the training to be extremely useful and really liked the way it was structured. The level of involvement, engagement and discussion made it both informative and enjoyable, and helped to keep everyone actively participating throughout. I would definitely recommend this training to others.”

The format of the day was engaging, and the trainer’s informal, conversational style made the learning feel relaxed and accessible. The content was interesting and practical, and I’ve come away feeling much more confident about supporting mental health and wellbeing in the workplace. Highly recommend!”
