Good. Thanks. Quite intense. Especially crammed into three hours it’s a bit too much.

Great course to give knowledge and tools to be able to help someone as an initial responder

Kevin did a great job at ensuring we were all comfortable to engage with a difficult topic. The day was relaxed with breaks at the right time. I feel confident in being able to speak to someone who I think might be experiencing thoughts of suicide and knowing how to create a safety plan with them or seek advice from other professionals. I feel confident in knowing that it's ok not to know everything as that isn't what a Suicide First Aider is there for, that's for the professionals. I look forward to engaging more with Kevin in the future for other CPD training that will help me.

Wasn't sure about how would feel about it but definitely beneficial, and good knowledge of how to intervene.

After initially having difficulties logging in, which the team were very helpful with, the course was really good. It helped to process a difficult subject and build confidence.

Very worthwhile course following on from Mental Health First Aid. I was expecting it to be a draining emotional course considering the topic, however that is not the case and you feel energised and a confidence towards approaching suicide.

Great course and content but maybe need a few more breaks to stay focused.

Jamie was excellent. Established safety from the start. Brought appropriate humour. Really took time to connect with the whole group. Very very good. Thank you.
