What course participants have said before 'A great course, lots of valuable learning, great discussions and felt very well supported by two fabulous instructors.' 'I gained a lot of valuable knowledge which is very useful not only in my personal life but also my professional life. I believe this course is valuable to all people in order to help more raise awareness about Mental Health especially in working environments!' 'I really enjoyed the course. It covers a large section of subjects and topics which can be difficult to talk about but it was touched on in a very sensitive and safe way.' 'As a team leader I feel it will be very beneficial in helping me spot the signs of mental health concerns but also how to best support that individual' Jason Langley Jason has been working in Mental Health and Recovery Education since 2019, having previously worked with sensory disabilities.
