As a society, we don't tend to know how to take care of our mental health like we do our physical health. This means that people may not know how to support a friend, family member, or colleague experiencing a mental health issue, or where to go for help with their own mental health.
That’s where our courses come in.
We’re the national authority on mental health first aid and the leading provider of evidence-based mental health training.
Our expert guidance and training courses equip people with the skills to spot the warning signs of poor mental health in themselves and others. We help them to build the confidence to talk about mental health. And we provide the knowledge about support services they can use or signpost people to.
By choosing our courses, you’re helping to create healthier, more supportive environments where everyone can thrive.
Better understanding of mental health and less stigma ripples out into communities, with the potential to improve and save lives.
We strive to create courses and resources that everyone can access. When you book onto a course through the MHFA England® website, please fill in the ‘Accessibility requirements’ section of the booking form and tell us what you need to access the course venue and materials.
