One thing that stood out to me, reflecting on my own experiences, is that knowledge alone isn’t always enough, true impact comes from how we engage with it in real situations. It reminded me that when someone is in a crisis, they often can’t take in information or ask for help clearly, so I’d like to practise applying what we learned in more real-life scenarios. For me, this awareness has grown over many years, but it’s always valuable to be reminded that sometimes people can’t say “SOS” outright, even if they need help urgently.

A difficult subject to attend training for, at times the session was heavy but it certainly needed and I feel better placed to support someone should the need ever arise.

Trainer was amazing at delivering what is a very difficult subject matter. The material in the course itself was relevant, thought provoking and useful, achieving its objectives without being unecessarily long.
