Become a mental health first aider (MHFAider) on a Transpire Training public mental health first aid course. The two day courses run in a relaxed and encouraging setting. Each person is supported to learn and explore the topics surrounding mental health and wellbeing. The courses are primarily about giving participants the confidence and knowledge to support others, whilst we also develop tools to cultivate our own mental wellbeing.
Transpire Training instructors are all MHFA England accredited, passionate and great facilitators who are skilled in building a psychologically safe learning environment. All our MHFA instructors are experienced and knowledgeable (without the jargon) with extensive professional and or personal mental health backgrounds.
