Mental Health First Aid Wales Reviews

Course was really good would reccoment to anyone learnt a lot in the four sessions the Miriam and the voice task was very effective

The course was really informative and gave really good examples and stories that were real life so could understand situations more easily. Even though this is a tough emotional subject was facilitated in an interesting and easy way to help talk about difficult situations. Some really good tools provided like the jam jar and the continuum to see where people may be. The venue was nice but not very good with refreshments. It is also isolated to be able to go out for food if unable to bring any.

One of the best training events I have been on. I have learnt so much. Steve is brilliant and I cannot thank him enough

This course was one of the best courses I have attend in my 36 years in BCBC. Steve was an outstanding facilitator, his manner and explanations were very easy to understand and follow not only professionally , personally as well. The two days were so up lifting for me, I feel it would benefit all professionals to attend this training, just outstanding. Steve was excellent in encouraging the group to partake which made this training enjoyable. Excellent, training and Steve is just outstanding. The venue was good, although refreshments need to be in another room as the coffee machine was so loud and interfered with group work.

It was flexible, a good mix of interactive and home study and comprehensive with great aftercare.

Fantastic course which really supported and challeneged my understanding on how to help soemone in crisiss. The techniques shared are simple but effective. Really pleased to hear there is gonig to be ongoing support for myself as well.

The course was extremely informative and well-structured, providing practical tools for recognizing and addressing mental health challenges. I feel more confident in my ability to support someone experiencing a mental health crisis. Paul and Debbie were knowledgeable, approachable and created a safe space for learning about these sensitive topics.

The initial getting onto the online pre-work was a bit confusing (the steps to get into each module just didn't seem logical at first) but once in and I knew what to do, it all wen't smoothly. The facilitated course by Paul & Deb we're great. Both brought their own personalities to the room and this made it feel authentic. Both made it clear that we come first and to stop at any time if we needed to. Really good discussions by all on my course and really helped to cement the thinking and I was able to take away tips and things to think about. I would never wish poor mental health on anyone, and I am glad that I am now in a better position to help in that initial first aid to anyone who needs it. Cheers! Ryan Morgan

A well planned out course, with good interaction, I would have liked to have been able to download the manual

This has been a really beneficial course and while quite hard topics to cover the instuctors provided support
