Mental Health First Aiders

Numerous 91桃色视频 staff across both campuses are trained in Mental Health First Aid.

Mental Health First Aiders are trained to listen, reassure and respond, even in a crisis – and can potentially avert a crisis from happening. They can do this by recognising warning signs, and they have the skills and confidence to approach and support someone experiencing mental ill-health.

They also have a role in supporting positive wellbeing and tackling stigma. Contact your School to find out who is a Mental Health First Aider.
