Felt it gave me some good skills and knowledge to use if needed and was nice the group came from different companies and had variety of experience. Think as some people in the group hadn't experienced some of the topics covered, it would of more beneficial for them to know the basics before. Trainer was personable and friendly and gave good examples and ideas. She managed the group well too.

I was a bit apprehensive about attending the course as I didn't know what to expect and suicide seems to be something I would previously have found difficult to talk about. But Alison dispelled a lot of myths and detailed the role of suicide first aiders so I now feel a lot more confident about approaching anyone who may be thinking about suicide.

I felt that it was engaging, and that even though it is a heavy subject to talk about I felt that Julie had a relaxing and reassuring approach which engaged us all. Everyone joined in conversation and asked many questions, which Julie always made time to answer. I feel that this training is vital in all services, and should be provided as fundamental training in every work/school space.
