Mental Health First Aid Wales Reviews

Much preferred the in class to the online learning as took a lot more in. Very good and open discussions. Will help take along skills learnt in my role as a advocate for mental health.

Great course, the workshops were very good and better than it being web based.

Great course. Helped with lots of questions I had previously. Thanks for delivering it and for keeping us all engaged. I would have preferred to have adults included and not just young people. The manual was not able to be added to read offline and being such a large file, it took a while to load.

Good and very formal training

Really enjoyed... thank you

I really enjoyed the Mental Health First Aid training course, particularly the way it was delivered. The open discussions and interactive format made the experience far more engaging and meaningful than just being taught through a PowerPoint presentation. Being able to share perspectives, hear real-life examples, and ask questions in a supportive environment made the learning feel practical and relevant. It created a space where we could truly connect with the material and each other, which helped deepen my understanding of how to support someone experiencing a mental health challenge.

A hue thank you to our instructor Ellender Wildey, she was brilliant

It was good to meet people of different backgrounds and experiences and share thoughts around mental health first aid. It is also helpful to have my skills honed to First Aid rather than just my counselling skills.

I really enjoyed the Course and meeting different colleagues. I have never done this Course on line before as my previous MHFA training has always been in person so I was open to what to expect. I have put 'strongly agree' to most answers above due to the nature of my job which is a Counsellor, so I ask these questions within that. I thought Andrew was very personable and I liked listening to his own lived experience, as well as other colleagues on the Course who shared. I have rated the Course 4 stars as it was well run and was very convenient to do on line, but on reflection it would have been useful to roll it out over 4 webinars / sessions as it is, of course, a huge topic to cover.

Ellen was a great tutor and will be a loss to the team once she moves on
