An excellent course , very well presented. It has left me feeling far more able to cope effectively with the subject as I now have a method to follow.

This is an excellent course, both as a standalone subject, but as a follow on from the Mental Health First Aid training course. It is an intense course due to the subject matter, but when delivered by a good trainer, such as Kate, the potential impact on individual mental wellbeing is managed and lessened.

I thought this was a fantastic course to go on. I learned lots of ways in which other factors are considered relating to suicidal individuals and lots of statistics which are so helpful, also, scarily, that sometimes none of the symptoms and signs show up.

One of the best training courses i've been on. Will feedback to the rest of my team about the content and the app. Learnt new skills - particularly 'breaking down/dismantling the plan.

A tremendous course, many thanks - the best training I've had professionally or personally for many years. Valuable advice on how best to intervene and help someone affected by suicidal thoughts. Perhaps 'suicide first aid' is the wrong name for the course though - as this suggests the course might cover bandaging cuts inflicted, washing out drug overdoses, removing ligatures etc. Learnt a great deal, thanks you, and I intend to pursue to Level 4 accreditation stage if that's ok.

Thank you for an enlightening course delivered in a professional manner - I will be feeling more confident if ever a situation arises in which my experience may be called upon.

The tutor was great, she answered asll queries and questions proffesionally. The only thing i would say is the joining instructions are not very clear, i arrived early and was sent to 3 different buildings before finding out where to go which then made me late, maybe a map of the correct building and parking woud help.
