Mental Health First Aid Wales Reviews

I absolutely loved this course! I didn't know what to expect going into the course, but I have come away with such a different mindset on mental health and feel much more prepared to help anyone that may need help. Highly highly recommend.

Excellent delivery. Well detailed and very informative. I have learned a lot from this course. Darren was very professional. Excellent 2 days

The training was powerful and changed my perception of what is the right thing to do in Mental Health First Aid situations. I have had a very positive experience with Darren and Stella, they were informative, engaging, understanding and approachable with all the questions and emotions we felt like we would like to share. I felt very much supported by Darren not just through the lesson but afterwards being able to reach out to him if we need his help/advice.

Really good course. Enjoyed all aspects and found it very informative and useful. It will help me, professionally a lot.

Very knowledgeable and interesting workshop/training.

The course was really interesting even though emotionally intense. There were plenty of breaks and occasions to reflect on the content. Angela is a convincing speaker and made the training engaging.

Very informative and feel that I may be able to now make a difference in future by helping someone that needs some help & advise & guidance. Thankyou so much for the opportunity to attend the course.

Darren was superb throughout. His personal experience of dealing with mental health and the wider implications of the current mental health crisis were important to discuss. The nuts and bolts of how to deliver effective mental health first aid were superb and along with the drilling of the ALGEE approach, I feel prepared to intervene when needed.

I found this course interesting, informative and absolutely vital. Having the confidence to ask the direct questions about suicide and self-injury has already helped my interactions with learners in centre. I did know a lot about mental health issues but now I feel better equipped with helping to deal with a crisis and how to approach a situation. Darren is so knowledgable and encouraging, it makes being on his courses a pleasure.

Patrick was a really good instructor. He never pressured anyone to talk and the chat facility was always available. Also he was mindful of checking people were feeling okay due to the content of some of the topics. I would highly recommend the course. Very interesting and lots of information.
