Mental health training is one of our key ways of changing the experience of people affected by poor mental health in this country. We aim to enable people to feel more comfortable and confident to talk about mental health and know more about how to respond when problems arise.

After attending one of our training sessions you will leave with an increased understanding of mental health and mental illness, and a range of skills and tools you can use, both in the workplace and in everyday life.
