Mental Health & Wellbeing in Business
Why Mental Health First Aid training?
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an internationally recognised training course, designed to teach people how to spot the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and provide help on a first aid basis. The two-day Adult MHFAider® courses are tailored around supporting adults, and can be attended by anyone from age 16 upwards. ​Every MHFA course is delivered by a qualified and quality assured instructor and at the end of the course the trainee will be fully qualified as a Youth/Adult MHFAider®.
​
We also offer the One Day - MHFA Champion Courses*. This one-day accredited course teaches you how to identify when a person might be experiencing a mental health issue and how to guide them to get the help they need. ​By prioritising MHFA training, organisations can create a more resilient and compassionate workforce, ultimately enhancing overall wellbeing and performance.

The Impact of Poor Mental Health in the Workplace:
Around 17 million working days are lost every year globally because of ill-health caused by work stress, depression or anxiety. This is over 50% of all work-related ill health cases. (Spill)
The overall costs of mental ill health equate to double the NHS’s entire budget in England in 2022 (£153bn). (Centre for Mental Health).
On average, each person suffering took around 17.6 days off work.
​
For every £1 spent on supporting the mental health and wellbeing of their workforce, employers get (on average) about £4.70 back in increased productivity (Deloitte)
One third expect or would like more support for their mental health and wellbeing from their employers. (MHFA)
91% of UK adults experienced high or extreme levels of pressure or stress in the past year, leading to one in five workers (20%) in the UK needing to take time off work in that period. (Mental Health UK's Burnout report 2024)
