MHFA - Adult Mental Health Awareness Champion
Ideal for
This one day mental health awareness and skills course qualifies employees as MHFA Champions.
In 2007, officials within the Department of Health were asked to investigate the roll out of a mental health training package across England. Upon discovering that Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training, first developed in Australia in 2000, was being implemented across Scotland, a decision was taken to look at using the programme in England. Within the same year, the National Institute for Mental Health in England started offering Mental Health First Aid courses.
All courses are delivered by MHFA's approved centres.
