Mental Health First Aid

Each year approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health condition and at least 1 in 6 employees experience common mental health problems in the workplace. Research has shown that work is the biggest cause of stress which can stop people performing at their best.

This comprehensive two-day course covers a wide range of mental health conditions, enabling all participants to learn about the support/therapy provided by professional healthcare providers.

We are also IOSH accredited and provide a Managing Safely course, Working Safely course, a Cargo Handling in Ports course, a Fire Safety/Manual Handling course, Fire Safety for Managers course, Fire Safety Awareness course and First Aid at Work course.
