Mental Health First Aid Course
Thank you for taking interest in applying to take part in Conscious' first official NHS Mental Health First Aid Course! There are only 14 spaces on the course which will take place on Saturday 7th to Sunday 8th March! This is a 12 hour long intensive training course to equip trainees with all the skills to confidently recognise mental health symptoms in their fellow peers, the skills needed to feel confident in approaching the topics of mental health as well as life saving signposting materials. These courses can cost upwards of £200 per person therefore we will be giving priority to those who are in wellbeing committee positions in clubs and societies with our main ambition to train at least one committee member of every sports team and society!
By doing this, our hope is that people will know that they can reach out to Mental Health First Aiders and that they will not only be able to listen but have the relevant skills and information to help.
We have had a lot of interest in these courses already and unfortunately there are only 14 spaces, therefore if you are interested, please fill in the form below! The deadline for applications is 28th February 2020! Please only apply if you are confident that you will be able to commit to the two sessions, there will be more opportunities later on in the year if you can’t! You will be notified after the deadline as to whether or not you have been accepted onto the course!
If you have been successful, we will be asking for a REFUNDABLE £20 deposit to confirm your place on the course. You will be refunded this on the day of the course. This is to decrease the likelihood of people not attending. Unfortunately, if you drop out last minute and we are not able to find a replacement for your spot, you will not be refunded the £20.
