training wasn't as daunting as I thought. Very informative and
I was a little apprehensive about the thought of Suicide First Aid on a Monday plus it being a virtual training session - I was unsure what to expect. However, Chris kept it informative, not too heavy and interesting. A good amount of interactivity, opportunities to practice some skills and "theory". He also made sure there was a short break every 1.5 hours - I found this good, not just due to the nature of the training but also the temptation when working virtually can be to be glued to your desk all day.
I really valued this time and to take the opportunity to discuss this really important issue, this will have an impact on me going forward and I really enjoyed the way it was led.
Very helpful in making me feel more confident to have a conversation about suicide
It was a really interesting and eye opening training session. Really well conducted by Chris, it was well paced and the activities kept us all engaged
Thank you for a brilliant session. Having done SafeTalk and YMHFA this was a fantastic recap.
This was a really wonderful introductory first aid course. It had many powerful and thought provoking moments. I think I learned a lot and feel I am better prepared to respond and notice if someone required support.
The course has shown me due to my personal experiences of suicide that l need to think about my language it has also shown me that l do need to talk to someone about my feelings .l have directly been affected by four suicides including finding my own mother dead and finding out a my foster mother had hanged herself .My daughter has been sectioned and this course has given me an understanding that my daughter is very likely to succeed if released so has guided me in my decisions regarding her care.
