Adult Mental Health First Aid Two Day Course

In partnership with Art4Space, the mental health awareness and training company It’s a Playground will be facilitating the internationally recognised Mental Health First Aid (England) course in Lambeth, London.

This two-day course will be held in the unique, colourful space just 6 minutes from Stockwell Tube Station and will be hosted by Art4Space who will be adding in some of their own wellbeing tips and exercises to help support your wellbeing.

The two-day course qualifies you as a Mental Health First Aider, giving you:

• An in-depth understanding of mental health and the factors that can affect wellbeing
• Practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues
• Confidence to step in, reassure and support a person in distress
• Enhanced interpersonal skills such as non-judgemental listening
• Knowledge to help someone recover their health by guiding them to further support – whether that’s self-help resources, through their employer, the NHS, or a mix

What to expect:

• Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities
• Each session is built around a Mental Health First Aid action plan
• We limit numbers to 16 people per course so that the instructor can keep people safe and supported while they learn
