Youth Mental Health: 2-day Youth Mental Health First Aid Course

We had some funding for 85 schools to have someone trained as a Youth Mental Health First Aider. This training also comes with a contribution to the cover costs involved in the training. The training is primarily for primary and secondary schools, although if an infant school applies, we will consider it. This is the last offer and there are only 16 places available. If the applicant number exceeds 16, then we will put those schools who have not had any MH First Aider training first, in date order of application. 

This final course will run on 21st, 23rd, 28th & 30th November from 9.15am to 11.45am. Please read these details and if you are interested in applying for the course, please fill out the form below: 

  • The course is virtual and consists of two sessions in week one and 2 sessions in week two. All sessions are 9:15-11:45 
  • There is a £200 contribution to the cover costs for the course. 
  • You must complete all 4 sessions to get the qualification and the funding. Where this does not happen, there will be a £200 charge to comply with the council’s wastage policy. 
  • It needs to be the same person who completes all 4 sessions. 

Training is accredited and conducted by Mental Health First Aid England. Please see their website for more information on the course. Please note that unless you book on the course via this application form, the free training offer does not apply.
