We are now able to offer the MHFA England accredited Mental Health Aware course, as an online half day session.
This course raises awareness of mental health. It covers:
What mental health is and how to challenge stigma
A basic knowledge of some common mental health issues
An introduction to looking after your own mental health and maintaining wellbeing
Confidence to support someone in distress or who may be experiencing a mental health issue
The online version has been very successful and we have received lots of positive feedback:
1st zoom course I’ve attended. Break out sessions worked well….Ann allowed everyone to say what they wanted and ask questions. Ann was open and honest with us and inclusive, as well as being very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend and some great takeaways and hints.
A very worthwhile course which can be used both in and out of the work environment.
Ann was a very good instructor , made you feel at ease. If I had problems Ann would be the person I would like to talk to. Thank you
I felt this course has given me a lot of knowledge in all aspects of Mental Health. Ann was a very good instructor who gave a good explanation which I could understand
Whilst I thought using Zoom would be strange it actually worked very well.

Adult Mental Health First Aid Training – online version
We know that many of you are waiting to complete this training at our offices in Staffordshire, but whilst this is not possible at the moment, we are now delivering the Online MHFA England courses. Over 100 attendees have become Mental Health First Aiders on our Online Adult Mental Health First Aid sessions and the feedback we have received has been fantastic:
Excellent course and well delivered by Ann. It was done virtually so I wondered how this would work, but it was well structured and did work very well.
I really enjoyed the course. I found that it had the perfect balance of group work and individual discussions, it also worked well on Zoom. Ann was brilliant, a great mentor/instructor and I will definitely be looking into other courses which I could attend with her.
Excellent course, brilliantly facilitated by Ann. The mix of slides, breakouts, discussion and videos were all well blended and made the sessions very interactive. Very informative and useful material. I have learnt a lot.
Very well delivered with excellent use of technology to engage the group, e.g. use of breakout rooms / flipchart. Great to receive a hard copy manual in the post beforehand to use during the session and as an on-going resource
The course is a blend of self-study and video session. If you want to register your interest please just get in touch. ann@openroadlearning.co.uk.
Adult Mental Health First Aid Refresher Training
If you have already completed the 2 day MHFA training and would like to refresh your skills, then we can now offer this training via Zoom. It’s a 4 hour interactive session and so we’re keeping numbers low to enable more conversation. Please contact us for more information. ann@openroadlearning.co.uk
Online support during COVID-19 pandemic
We know these are strange and challenging times. We’ve very quickly had to learn how to use technology differently and convert from a very much face to face business to a more online approach. To help and support you with workplace wellbeing and mental health challenges, we’ve put together a series of short webinars including mental health awareness, an introduction to wellbeing, developing personal resilience. These can all be tailored to your specific business needs. Please contact ann@openroadlearning.co.uk for more information.
