MHFA BRAND NEW 2023 2 day Become a certified MHFAider (1)

Mental Health First Aid England have launched their new Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course.

The MHFA course now offers 24/7 digital support through the MHFAider® Support App with exclusive resources, ongoing learning opportunities to grow their confidence, and the benefit of joining England’s largest community of trained MHFAiders®.

The newly developed MHFA course content, has increased the use of digital materials which will reduce our carbon footprint even further.

The new course includes more practical skills-based training and opportunities to practise, greater accessibility, and ongoing support for three years after certification.

Additionally, MHFAiders® receive access to exclusive events so that they can continue to develop their support for your workplace beyond the training course.

The MHFAider Support App® works to support the MHFAiders'® own mental health – the resources within can teach critical self-care skills, with the emotion tracker function allowing them to chart their own wellbeing.

MHFAiders® can help organise their role with reminders and secure conversation journaling, to safely reflect on their work.

The app provides 24/7 text support for when MHFAiders® are feeling overwhelmed or need guidance for certain situations.

The course will equip Mental Health First Aiders (MHFAiders®) with:

• The knowledge and skills to spot signs of a person experiencing poor mental health
