This course was really useful to me, as although I have experience of supporting students who have suicidal thoughts, it has given me a deeper understanding of why it might happen, how people may present and the language and scripts which I can use when supporting a YP. The pace of the day was perfect. The venue was a blessing, as airconditioned on one of the hottest days this year! The trainer was engaging and knowledgably and very approachable. Loved it!

The course was delivered in a very practical way. There was always clarity on how the model of deescalation is being explained. There is a clear framing on what the core beliefs are, what to expect and how to handle the difficulties. Overall, every minute gave us useful handy tips.
