Youth eMHFA Wales Reviews

although the subjects were difficult the instructors and group helped make it enjoyable

LOVED the course immensely! Learnt a lot about conditions and symptom's I hadn't given much thought to-I would have liked to have had some more insight around Anxiety and panic attacks and how to calm, reassure and protect during an attack as well as after-care. I feel that maybe we could have covered some children's mental health from age5-16 as I feel there are more signals to children needing mental heath support. It's a valuable course

Fantastic! I feel much better equipped to listen more carefully and have more direct, sensitive conversations. The discussions were useful and the instructors had very perceptive insights. The only aspect I struggled with were the ALGEE responses to the scenarios; that for me seemed like too much of a formulaic way to think through the scenarios and not very intuitive. This is probably helpful for some other people though. Thank you!

Great course content and manuals. Well presented course with lots of opportunities to share and ask questions. Certainly given me a greater understanding of MHFA. Would thoroughly recommend. Thank you!

I really enjoyed the course and felt I gained a lot of insight and knowledge. I was unsure about the attending this course whether it was right for me. So glad I did. You just never know when this might be useful. I feel I will be a lot more confident in my approach, if some one confides in me or I spot someone not being their usual self. Both Hannah and Mike were very professional and experienced. They were well prepared and presented the information in an easy style. They worked extremely well together. A lot of trust between them and the result was a very good atmosphere where knowledge was gained seemingly effortlessly. Thank you Marea Williams

An excellent course that helped with my confidence in the subject. Also the opportunity to meet face to face with other practitioners and hear their different perspectives was invaluable.

A huge thank you to the team delivering this valuable training. I think all staff working in schools should undertake it!

Really interactive and engaging

A very informative course delivered in a mindful way - Instructors were respectful and patient and tried to include everyone in the topics covered. The course instils a non-judgemental mindset, key to this supportive role, giving confidence on how to recognise and approach these difficult subjects and the next steps involved.

Very informative and has given me the confidence to now tackle a range of issues head on. Expertly delivered at a good pace.
