Dave was absolutely brilliant at delivering this course. He made me feel at ease and not worried about asking questions. I feel confident enough now putting what I've learnt into practice. Keep up the good work Dave. 😄

The course instructors were excellent with the way they mashalled the group, involving all participants. There were many full on discussions about areas of mental health that I knew nothing about and I learnt a lot from the instructors and the other participants. We had a wide variety of participants from various walks of life and each person gave me something to think about and the course gave me a much better understanding of the complexities of mental health and not to be afraid of it.Response : Thank you Kevin, it was a pleasure working with you, I am so glad you found the course informative.

This course is excellent. It provides a wealth of information to assist you in helping someone in crisis. The instructors were amazing. Knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, both shared experiences that enabled others to freely share their stories and experiences. They knew the course content well, explained it well, encouraged deeper thought into the subject and they controlled the programme with ease. They allowed plenty of time for discussion whilst also ensuring that time commitments were met. Both instructors were natural in their capability and their passion and knowledge for the subject matter was clear from the outset. Highly recommend!Response : Thank you for your positive feedback Seejay and also, for your positive contributions throughout the sessions. It was an absolute pleasure to have you on the course. Carol

I had an incredibly positive experience from participating in the 2-day course, this was amplified as 3 participants did not arrive which meant that we had more discussions within the small group. Kim brought a very realistic approach to the course, as I believe is key to understanding mental health, Kim was exceptionally good at relaying the finer details of the various sections. The course was set out very well and detailed, the trainer (Kim) delivered the course in an easy, engaging and informative way which led to high participation from all the attendees .

Enjoyed the course electronic interactions, I felt I understood more about the first section - maybe because of family situations I was more comforatable with it. I thought my knowledge would have been good for the second half but I had the realisation that I am not as knowledgable as I thought - but it wa sa good learning experience. The IT flowed well which suprised me, there were other candidates who i found had a lot more knowledge or appeared to. I wouldhave prefered a written copy of the manual.
