Welcome

We are Mental Health First Aid (MHFA®) England. We're a social enterprise with a vision to improve the mental health of the nation. 

We are the largest provider of Mental Health First Aid training in the UK and Europe, with over ten years of experience supporting businesses to create and sustain healthier workplaces.

Poor mental health costs UK employers up to £56 billion each year. But for every £1 spent by employers on mental health interventions, they get back £5.30 in reduced absence, presenteeism, and staff turnover (Deloitte, 2022).

Our training and consultancy is here to support you to manage health and wellbeing proactively, minimise the impact of mental ill health on your business and your people, and promote and maintain healthy workplaces. 

We’ll work alongside you to deliver training that complements and enhances your existing wellbeing strategy, if you have one. If you don’t, we’ll get you started on that journey and support you along the way. Each organisation's culture is unique and creating change around mental health is a complex task that requires a multi-tiered approach, which our team of experts is positioned to support.
