Our friendly courses led by Dr A.J. Yates will give you or your staff the confidence and skills to increase wellbeing and reduce mental health problems in the workplace.

Reducing stigma

Mental Health First Aid also empowers people to care for themselves and others.  By reducing stigma through greater understanding, the courses designed by MHFA England break down barriers to the support that people may need to stay well, recover, or manage their symptoms – to thrive in learning, work and life.  View MHFA England’s vision and mission.
