I feel empowered, equipped, guided and confident after this training.
Imagine if…
…a team member’s mental health spiralled, but no one felt confident enough to step in.
…performance dropped, relationships fractured, and nobody understood why.
…someone reached out for help, but the response caused more harm than good.
That is unthinkable to us.
Our Mental Wellbeing First Aid courses exists so no one has to face those moments alone – equipping your people with the awareness, skills, and confidence to act when it matters most.

Why choose Mental Wellbeing First Aid?
A better way to build mental health skills at work
We’ve taken years of experience delivering mental health training and created the Mental Wellbeing First Aid suite of courses – focused on what really works in workplaces. It’s practical, relatable, and designed for people with no prior mental health experience as well as those looking to deepen their skills.
We believe in a fundamental approach to wellbeing
We see the whole person, not just symptoms, and recognise the stress and pressures life brings. It’s not about labels or waiting for crisis. We all have mental health, and our training is human, holistic, and empowering.
Safe, open conversations
Our sessions aren’t about memorising models or ticking boxes. They’re about feeling safe to ask questions, connected to each other’s experience, and confident enough to offer support when it really matters.
Skills that stick
We focus on human connection over purely clinical models, empathy-led learning, and everyday language that’s easy to apply. You’ll feel equipped to help in both everyday challenges and crisis situations.
Don’t just take our word for it…
