a very worthwhile course and has given me a lot of useful tools to use if I ever need them, which makes me feel a lot more confident and tools that can be used in other circumstances too.

Fantastic course Christo, thank you. Fascinating course and a subject that I now feel far more comfortable and confident in.

Really helpful and informative course. Demonstrates the importance of normalising mental ill health and bringing the awareness of suicide and ability to prevent it. Time so worth spending to potentially save a life. Great course delivered by excellent trainer...I feel everyone should take this course.

Excellent course! I think the course gave me a better understanding of why and when people might consider and carry out suicide. The purpose and limitations (we are not therapists) of suicide first aid were clear. Having people on the course with more experience of mental health issues and suicide was also very useful in understanding the real-life impact and complications you can encounter.

I found the course really useful. It revisited some things I was familiar with but had forgotten, and built nicely on my previous knowledge from MHFA training.
