“The MHFAider® qualification is an exciting step forward in the evolution of this critical training. This formalises the knowledge learners have and gives the training extra weight. I think it will help people understand that MHFAiders® have been through a rigorous training process and are safe to be approached. The process felt very safe and well managed – there was support throughout and the questions really made me think about how embedded the learning had been. I now have a well-earned RSPH Level 3 Award in Mental Health First Aid!” Jane Cattermole, Founder / Director Mainly, Mental Health
