Youth Mental Health First Aid
Mental Health First Aid is the help given to someone experiencing a mental health problem before professional help is obtained. MHFA does not teach people to be therapists but it gives people skills to notice symptoms and provide initial help and support.
The Youth Mental Health First Aid training is an internationally recognised course, designed specifically for those people that teach, work, live with or care for young people aged 8-18 years. You will learn how to provide information, tools and techniques to promote a young person’s mental health and emotional wellbeing and; support a young person who might be experiencing mental and emotional distress.
This is a two consecutive day course and you should arrange to attend on both days. You will receive a Youth MHFA manual that you can take away with you at the end of the training, and also an attendance certificate from MHFA England to say you are now Youth Mental Health First Aider.

Mind believes Black Lives Matter. In mental health there is a huge disparity in how black people are listened to and supported at every level.
Black people are four times more likely to be detained, and more likely to be restrained and isolated under the outdated Mental Health Act. This weekend marks 18 months since the Mental Health Act review - and we are still waiting for the UK Government to make vital changes.
At Mind, we have campaigned alongside the most marginalised and discriminated against. We also recognise the white privilege inherent in our own organisation and we are committed to addressing this.
We won't give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets support and respect. We know there is a lot of work to do and we will fight for everyone.
It's #VolunteerWeek and we would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all our volunteers. We couldn’t deliver our vital services across #Rochdale #Middleton and #Heywood without your support #NeverMoreNeeded
It’s important to look out for one another, please check in with others, in a safe way, and if anyone is struggling with their mental health and wellbeing, please contact us. Our self-referral form is here: www.rochdalemind.org.uk/refer & Information Line 01706 752 338
