Mental Health Awareness Training Reviews

A gentle reminder for those that have suffered or supported others with MH, and a clear outline to those who are lucky enough to never have experienced MH issues the simple phrase – for over 2 weeks has prompted me to get in touch with my therapist as I have been feeling low after a bereavement, and those feelings have worsened over the last couple of weeks. Thank you

Mostly common sense but good to be reminded that it can be a fine line between a bit of extra pressure and not being able to cope at all.

Covered a good range of topics and was easy to follow.

A useful course to undertake. I did think however it would focus on how, as foodbank volunteers we should deal properly with clients who may encounter who have mental health problems in a simplistic but positive manner. I accept that we are not there to help them professionally. I accept as well that employers do have a resposibility to support the mental health of their employees, a factor that is often overlooked in the work place.

The course was very interesting with nice presenters and made me reconsider lots of elements of my own life-especially the practical and manageable tips which were new to me such as the 'belly breathing'. I liked that the course was broken up into many sections that meant I could stop and start (helpful at the moment in Covid, when I'm home schooling with lots of interruptions from children) One small issue was that you had to 'resit' an entire section if you wanted to just see a little bit of it again and you couldn't fast forward that section to get to the part you wanted to revisit. I think that element could do with improvement, but this is a small thing and generally I think it was great
