Mental Health First Aid Champion's Course
What is a Mental Health Champion?
A mental health champion is someone who has undergone training to provide support, raise awareness, and promote mental health within the workplace. These champions are equipped with the knowledge and confidence to assist colleagues who may be struggling with mental health issues or stress, guiding them to appropriate resources.
They also play a key role in implementing preventative strategies to safeguard employee wellbeing, advocating for mental health awareness, and supporting colleagues in times of crisis. Each champion may tailor their approach based on their personal strengths and the needs of the organisation.
Where you have 4 or more learners, we can also come to you at your premises (subject to space) and deliver the course up to a maximum of 16 learners. Please contact us here to discuss your requirements.
