We recently ran another successful two-day Mental Health First Aider training course, which was attended by several colleagues.
The session, ran by Wendy Garrett of Garrett Learning, has been described as engaging and valuable.
The role of a Mental Health First Aider in the workplace is to be a point of contact for any employee or customer who is experiencing a mental health issue or emotional distress. This interaction could range from having an initial conversation through to supporting the person to get appropriate help.
