Why Suicide First Aid Training Matters
Suicide is a complex and sensitive issue that can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. In today’s fast-paced and stressful work environments, employers and employees must be equipped with the knowledge and skills to recognise warning signs and intervene effectively.
Suicide first aid courses provide participants with the tools they need to respond confidently and compassionately to someone experiencing a mental health crisis. From recognising the signs of suicidal ideation to initiating appropriate support and connecting individuals with professional help, these courses can save lives.
We have two courses to choose from:
