Suicide is very heavy subject, but this helped to take away the stigma and encourage you to really listen and identify when someone may need help and how you can support and signpost.

Really enjoyed the course, appreciated the opportunity to take part and be involved and would recommend to others. I would love to see WHSmith's continuing to focus on keeping people aware of self-care and what more we can do in this space :)

A well informed course that has given me great skills and an understanding of the subject. Working with young people I see the traits of mental health and will now be confident to ask if I have any real concerns

really good and at a steady pace. I was aware of the City & Guilds, but didn't have anything to sign up to get the certificate. Are you able to do this please?

Thank you, I feel I have learnt, I feel more confident how to approach and be a compassionate person to be there for someone. Talking about suicide is generally difficult, took me a long time to develop the confidence and an approach that is compassionate and validating , this course draw my attention to aspects a broader view and understanding how to be with and empower and outline hope.
