Fundamental Wellbeing First Aid

This 2-day or 16-hour workshop-style course is in line with the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) 'Mental Health Conditions, Work and The Workplace' guidance. It will teach you the skills you need to help others proactively (including mental health crises) as well as yourself.

We’ll spend lots of time working on resilience and self-care and empower people to have the confidence to step in and offer support to others when needed. Packed with practical advice, delegates will be able to spot signs of declining mental health, and by using a practical action plan, be able to appropriately offer someone help both in an emergency and longer-term situation.

Throughout our workshop-style sessions, we will have lots of time to discuss specific mental health conditions, work through case studies and become better prepared to help ourselves and guide and support those around us.

What you will learn:

What is mental health?

Stigma & discrimination

The mental health spectrum

Recovery & wellness

Stress & pressure

Depression & anxiety

Self-care

Getting help & support

Listening & empathy

This course isn’t about having all the answers, and it’s not about teaching people to have all the solutions to other people's problems. It’s about genuine empathy for others and helping individuals recognise early warning signs to help prevent illness or decline in wellbeing.
