I found the course very useful, the trainer excellent - welcoming, knowledgeable. I will especially remember her two bottle stress container demonstration - really made that concept come alive for me.

Was great. Learned a lot. Would recommend and do again. I think some version of this should be taught to everyone.

The training was very effective as an employee in higher education due to Julie’s background in higher education. Julie was very understanding of our roles and was able to apply that to the course content.

Gavin was great! He made the day as enjoyable as it could be, whilst getting across the importance of the subject. He was really helpful with any questions asked. Thanks Gavin!

After the course I posted the following on LinkedIn ... "I was most fortunate to have attended this training session, so expertly delivered by Emma. As a result, I feel more confident and well equipped to prevent suicide should that need arise. I can not recommend this training more highly."

I have enjoyed the course overall & feel more confident. The only reason I put 4 stars for the 2nd question is because I would potentially still be worried about dealing with it but know that I have the tools to do so
