MHFA’s vision is to normalise society’s attitudes and behaviours around mental health, by developing the skills we need to look after our own and others’ wellbeing.
Courses are designed to teach people to spot the first signs of someone developing poor mental health, recognise the symptoms of mental health problems and deal with a crisis situation. MHFA encourages us to engage with, support and signpost people to appropriate professional help, as well as exploring some self-care techniques.
