Overview

One in four of us will experience a serious problem with our mental well-being at some point in our lives.

This means it is highly unlikely any of us will make it through life without having a problem or being close to someone who does.

People with serious mental health problems die on average 10 years younger than other people. This is because of the greater risk of poor physical health and a reluctance to access healthcare.

Our Mental Health Awareness training is constructed to help all business sectors by informing them on the significance of understanding good and bad mental health.

Participants will come away with the skills and ability to identify signs and symptoms of varying mental health, and what to do if they feel someone needs help.
