Delivered in an engaging and accessible way, this two-day workshop goes beyond theory — it focuses on helping you recognise what to look for, understand what might be happening for someone, and feel confident in how to respond.
Throughout the training, you’ll learn to identify the signs and symptoms of common mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, substance use and crisis situations. More importantly, you’ll learn how to approach someone you’re concerned about, start a meaningful conversation, and offer initial support in a way that feels calm, respectful and appropriate.

More than that, they leave feeling more confident, more aware, and better equipped to respond when it matters most, whether that’s in the workplace, at home, or in their community.
