This 2 day, Mental Health First Aid England course, enables people to develop the knowledge and skills to become a mental health first aider. The course explores what support can be given to a person experiencing poor mental health, or a mental health crisis, using a holistic, person-centred approach. Just like physical first aid, this course does not teach people to be professionals (therapist, councillors or diagnosticians) but instead enables them to signpost to appropriate services or to provide support until professional help arrives.

• Explain what mental health is • Describe how to look after your own mental health and wellbeing • Explain some of the risk factors associated with poor mental health. • Demonstrate how to apply ALGEE in a mental health first aid conversation • Describe the role of a mental health first aider.
