MMI: Mental Health First Aid Champion - Swansea

We are launching our national MHFA accredited training and are inviting all members of the veterinary team to participate.

The hope is that delegates will use their training from MHFA to recognise mental health issues amongst their peers and themselves. It will illustrate effective signposting to appropriate services and a greater understanding of mental wellbeing and illness while strengthening a culture of recognising the importance of mental wellbeing.

This training will give a MHFA certificate with further support and will be delivered in-person and is being delivered by Mental Health First Aid England.
