Very good course. The webinars and discussion groups were helpful. The videos were well chosen. I found I learnt more from the videos than the handbook, because the impact of the videos was greater.

Very useful course. Patrick was approachable abd friendly but professional at the same time. I thought the manual was well written and aided my understanding. Well done Torfaen Talks!

The course was extremely informative and well-structured, providing practical tools for recognizing and addressing mental health challenges. I feel more confident in my ability to support someone experiencing a mental health crisis. Paul and Debbie were knowledgeable, approachable and created a safe space for learning about these sensitive topics.

The initial getting onto the online pre-work was a bit confusing (the steps to get into each module just didn't seem logical at first) but once in and I knew what to do, it all wen't smoothly. The facilitated course by Paul & Deb we're great. Both brought their own personalities to the room and this made it feel authentic. Both made it clear that we come first and to stop at any time if we needed to. Really good discussions by all on my course and really helped to cement the thinking and I was able to take away tips and things to think about. I would never wish poor mental health on anyone, and I am glad that I am now in a better position to help in that initial first aid to anyone who needs it. Cheers! Ryan Morgan

A well planned out course, with good interaction, I would have liked to have been able to download the manual
