Youth eMHFA Wales Reviews

Was a lot more conversation based than training I've done in the past which has just involved slide shows. Lots of opportunities to ask questions and because the training was spread over 2 weeks I feel all the information has sunk in for me better than it would have over a shorter time frame. I learned lots of very practical skills in facilitating conversations about mental health and definitely feel better equipped to deal with any possible situations. Really enjoyed Steve's delivery style and felt he held the conversation very well but also left ample opportunity for others to contribute. Would definitely recommend this training, thank you :)

Stephen was able to provide real life examples of mental health first aid, which made the training much more relatable and has reassured me that I would be able to follow similar steps in such a situation.

I found the training very useful. We had great discussions. I definitely recommend buying the handbook as it is great to use once the training is over to make sure we remain confident when facing certain situations.

The instructor was welcoming, informative and sensitive to the subject

Very useful course. It was heavy but educational and worthwhile

A superb course with a very knowledgeable leader with engaging conversations.

Very informative. The instructor made the training relaxed and enjoyable. This training was massively beneficial to the job we do.

I will find the course beneficial to my role, as a lot of the YPs I work with have a range of issues that were highlighted on this course. By applying ALGEE when working individuals, and asking them outright if they they have thought about suicide. Also am I the right support at the moment is something to bear in mind.

The training has given me so much more confidence in my new role

Even with a lot of previous experience and training, I still had an opportunity to upskill in certain areas. Thank you so much. I would recommend this course to anyone working with children and young people.
