Youth eMHFA Wales Reviews

Helpful, calm and well managed.

thank you so much I feel equipped for using mental health for first aid.

A really valuable course and I really appreciated being able to draw on the expertise of the presenters. This course would be incredibly valuable to newly qualified teachers (indeed all teachers!) in schools, both in terms of preparing them well for working with pupils with mental health issues but also in terms of supporting their own mental health and wellbeing. There is very little/no input like this on initial teacher training or the NQT year and I hope to rectify this next year.

A great course, thank you to Stephen and Victoria for delivering such useful information. It was also good to speak to other schools about the experiences they experience in schools with children and how they support them. I will recommend this course to other colleagues, as I feel it is so important to be aware of the mental health first aid. I would also be interested in other training that is available along this line. Once again, Thank you.

Really brilliant course and excellent facilitation, thanks very much

This course was really beneficial, not only to offer us the skills and confidence to be able to support both students and fellow colleagues, but also to gain a better understanding of the experiences faced by other services within the university, this leads to a better understanding of the students as a whole and hopefully a more holistic way of supporting them.

I would have preferred a hard copy of the manual as opposed to the digital copy, as i work better from a physical copy. But other than that, i have found the training really helpful.

Excellent - really enjoyed the course. Feel like I have gained lots of knowledge that will help me to support the young people that I work with. Thank you so much

Very enjoyable training which allowed a good opportunity to reflect on scenarios that could happen in everyday life. i also learnt a lot about differences between psychosis and hallucinations and depression etc, very interesting. I do believe this will be helpful in my professional and personal life. The facilitators led the training well and they gave opportunities for group discussion but they also kept they time on track. Thank you for organising these sessions.

this course was excellent. The Instructors pitched it at the right level for everyone involved. They were informative, they ensured that everything was covered and explained everything clearly, in a way that everyone in the course whether they had attended one previously or not would understand. The content of the course was excellent too, there was the right amount of talking from them and time for questions and answers all the way through the course. They worked very well together and complimented each other. Both are definitely an asset to your MHYFA delivery team. Thanks Tor and Steve for a really enjoyable course.
