SFA 02 - Suicide First Aid: Understanding Suicide Intervention reviews

Overall I learned about further about suicide as someone who has/struggles with it on and off. I also learned how to be better prepared if I am in a real life scenario like that to help someone. But yeah Elin did a great job as a tutor!

I am so grateful to have been given a place on this training course. I have learnt so much and I am confident that I will be able to help (in some way) anyone who might be struggling with thoughts of suicide in a much more effective and compassionate way. Learning “First Aid” techniques and realising/accepting that I don’t have to fix or cure anything and can continue to get support from such a fantastic organisation has been invaluable. So I myself have benefited from the emotional support today and the knowledge that has been shared. Thank you Elin and the bigmoose team x

Really enjoyed the course. Finished the course with more knowledge and confidence about talking about suicide prevention.

This was a good course. I feel that although I have had had experience in talking someone out of taking their own life, I now feel that I have better tools in case I am ever faced with a situation like that again.

Thank you so much! You'd never think you were new to the role- training is definitely your bag! So respectful, approachable and delivered such an engaging and thought provoking day!

Thank you for providing this course. I feel more confident in myself should I ever need to support someone thinking or acting on thoughts of suicide. The more suicide first aiders in the world the more lives saved.

big moose was a lovely venue and a great space for the training. Elin was perfect and tutored really well. Felt very at ease with the training structure and practice.

Enjoyed it a lot, I understand the subject even more now.

So glad I attended this course

Was great and made me really think
