MHFA Mental Health Adult Reviews

Ryan was very helpful and delivered the course in an informative yet enjoyable way. The group was made to feel extremely comfortable and encouraged to ask questions if ever unsure about something. Ryan was able to provide educated answers to all of our queries, providing a lot of clarification.

Very good course , highly recommend.

I thought the course was delivered in a professional and friendly manner. We were encouraged to speak out and share experiences to help with our own learning. I also felt it was absolutely fine not to speak out if I didn't feel comfortable and the trainer gave us lots of reminders that if we didn't want to participate in an activity, that was fine too. The training was very clear and the content covered a good amount of subjects. I feel comfortable in knowing how to approach and help a person with mental health.

Really informative, brilliant content especially the videos to help connect. Great delivery from the trainer who created a safe, comfortable environment for open discussions which really helped.

Content appropriate and helpful and relevant to the topic. Trainer was engaging, used several different methods to deliver and get delegates to participate in the learning. Trainer used life stories that helped me to connect the theory in to practice. Trainer also ensured that participation in activities were optional so no one felt under pressure and she also looked after the wellbeing of everyone throughout the two days. An excellent course

The course was very insightful and very informative and delivered clearly and professionally by the trainer whos own personal experiences i found very helpful.

The course was very informative, we all interacted well. I do feel that for the amount we paid for the course lunch should of been provided, as this way the group would of interacted together instead of sitting separatly.

I think the content was very thorough and mixed well with interactive activities. The trainer had lots of anecdotal information, signposted throughout the session and supported the group well and delivered the course at an appropriate pace. However, for me personally, in order to do progress to the instructor programme I had to complete the two days. I have worked in the field of mental health, substance misuse and currently run a service and work directly with HE students with existing mental health conditions offering primarily crisis support. I felt with my experience, this particular course felt very basic for me and for people with extensive experience this should be considered or indeed summarised as a course.

The trainer (Joni) was fantastic, excellent facilitation skills, excellent communicator & very personable. Struck a good balance between sharing personal experience vs thorough understanding of the subject matter. Very impressive manner or recognising other peoples experience and covering the ground that needed to be covered

I really enjoyed the course overall and found it very informative and interesting. It has equipped me with the tools required in order to spot the signs and symptoms sooner to allow us to intervene earlier in the workplace from an employer perspective. Michael was a great trainer and kept everyone engaged. From a personal perspective, it has also helped me to be able to spot signs and symptoms sooner and also offer help and support where required.
