Attendees particularly value the course’s practical structure for approaching conversations about suicide: it builds confidence to use direct, compassionate questions, listen effectively and follow an action plan, with useful prompts and signposting resources. Trainers are knowledgeable, calm and engaging, creating a safe, interactive environment with discussion, role play and regular wellbeing check-ins. Attendees say the learning transfers to work and personal life, although some find the virtual delivery and full-day format demanding.

An incredibly thought provoking session, both professionally and personally.

Laura was fantastic in delivering the suicide training, she lead with compassion and validated everyone's feelings no matter how different / conflicting. The contents of the training was understandably upsetting in parts but the main structure was very educational. I feel better equipped at noticing signs and being able to hold a space for a safe conversation.
