Excellent course and the tutor was excellent. Brought a wealth of experience to the subject and delivered what can be a very difficult subject to discuss with lighter moments which made things easier.

Very engaging and informative. Kath and Chris work well together and compliment each other's skills. I would definitely recommend the course to others who are in supporting roles.

Excellent course and materials too had to deal with a 5 year old with psychosis the following day who was complaining of eyes coming out of the wall to her. Got her in to see OPTHALMOLOGIST consultant - eyes NAD so then admitted to paediatrics for their referral to MH.

An absolutely fantastic course which was a real eye opener. Our instructor was very knowledgeable and very compassionate towards the discussions which were brought up by attendees of the course. The only issue I found was that there was quite a lot of content to cover which possibly would have been better over three days. In addition, due to the nature of the course, I would have preferred it to run towards the end of the working week as it took myself and some other attendees a day to readjust emotionally afterwards. Despite this I would highly recommend this course to anyone MHFA or not.

I am significantly more informed about mental health and benefitted from the real life examples and knowledge sharing as part of the group. I have learnt a lot in two days.

Excellent course and Belinda was exceptional. The way she facilitated interaction and communicated with the group was first class.

I enjoyed this course and now feel better prepared to help someone in a crisis situation. My only suggestion would be to have shorter sessions over more days because the topics are intense.
