Mental Health First Aid (Wales)

27th May 2014 @ 9:15 am - 28th May 2014 @ 4:15 pm

Two-day Diverse Cymru course

MHFA (Wales) is a 12 hour course which is funded and supported by the Welsh Government and its partners include the Public Health Wales, Health Challenge Wales and Mind Cymru. MHFA is in 21 countries in the world. The idea of MHFA is that people should be taught how to perform basic ‘first aid’ for those exhibiting signs of mental distress, just as they are commonly taught first aid for physical problems. MHFA improves mental health literacy and helps people to recognise the signs and symptoms of someone with mental health problems; to respond to various mental health crises, engage with, support and signpost people to appropriate professional help.

Cost: £140 per person
