Level 2 First Aid for Mental Health Course

Little Acorns Forest Schools Ltd now offer a one day Level 2 First Aid for Mental Health Course. This is an accredited course.

Even before the FAA Level 2 Award in First Aid for Mental Health (RQF)COVID-19 pandemic, there was a growing mental health crisis in the UK, with one in four adults experiencing mental illness each year.

Though talking about mental health has become much more common, there can still be a real stigma when it comes to the workplace. As a result, many employees don’t speak up until they are really struggling to cope. By training your staff in First Aid for Mental Health, you can raise awareness of mental illnesses, encourage early intervention to aid recovery, increase confidence in dealing with mental illnesses and reduce the stigma around mental health issues.
