WHAT IS IT? Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a national training programme developed to: Raise awareness of mental health issues. Train non-professionals to recognise those affected by mental health problems and offer initial help and guidance towards professional support. WHY IS IT NECESSARY?

This course would strengthen the support that you offer to those affected by mental health problems, enabling you to identify and help those affected in your community, workplace, their families and friends. This is a 12-hour course, developed and regulated by the National Institute of Mental Health in England (NIMHE) and England's Care Services Improvement Partnerships (CSIP). Participants will receive a CISP certificate and manual on successful completion of the course. WHO IS IT FOR? The course is for anyone who may come into contact with a person with a mental health problem either in their day to day life and/or workplace. WHERE & WHEN WILL IT BE?
