Step One Charity is here to help with our upcoming 2-day Mental Health First Aid course on February 8th and 9th, 2023.

Mental health is an essential aspect of overall wellbeing and it is crucial for businesses to prioritise the mental health of their employees. By participating in this course, you’ll learn how to recognise and support individuals experiencing mental health challenges in the workplace, creating a culture of mental health awareness and care.

Mental health first aid is an important skill to have, just like physical first aid. It allows individuals to provide support to those in need, whether it be a colleague, friend, or family member. The 2-day Mental Health First Aid course teaches attendees how to recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health challenges, how to provide initial support, and how to guide individuals towards appropriate professional help.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to invest in the wellbeing of your team. Sign up now to reserve your spot in the Mental Health First Aid course on February 8th and 9th, 2023 based in Exeter city centre.

Together, we can work towards creating a society that prioritises mental health and provides support to those in need!
