Mental Health First Aid
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an internationally recognised training course which teaches people how to spot the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and provide help on a first aid basis.
MHFA won’t teach you to be a therapist, but just like physical first aid, it will teach you to listen, reassure and respond, even in a crisis.
We ensure a sector specific approach is taken when delivering this course and believe having the right trainer is of paramount importance and allocate appropriate experienced trainers accordingly.

“Mark developed and ran hugely successful and beneficial Transactional Analysis workshops. We had decided to do this after a period of restructuring and consolidation across the business. This approach was fabulous in helping individuals get a better understanding of their own and other’s behaviour – especially in interpersonal relationships. Mark made the complex theory accessible and fun, he is observant, approachable and insightful. The language he made available – is still in use across the teams today.”

“Mark has delivered bespoke Mental Health Awareness training for management at H&M. I find him to be focused and innovative, always looking for ways to improve the content. I truly appreciate the time he has invested in learning about our organisation. It feels like a real partnership and it ensures the training is relevant and impactful. I have received excellent feedback from our managers who have attended, finding Mark credible, a strong communicator and someone who acts with trust and integrity. I look forward to continuing to work with Mark and would highly recommend him to any organisation.”

“We were so delighted to meet Mark and Ruth through the MHFA Training. We learnt so much from them in the 2 day programme and it really has resonated with us because of their open and easy to understand way of training. They often gave personal examples to really highlight important issues to us and I really admire them for this, putting a personal touch to a difficult subject can bring much meaning and resonation to it. They are both so knowledgeable about the wide range of Mental Health topics they covered, we really learnt much more than we had anticipated from them.”
