Derbyshire: Free Mental Health Training Available

How can this training help you?

Are you a staff member or volunteer supporting people in your community in Derbyshire? If so, this training can help you gain a better understanding of how people experience mental health problems, including depression, anxiety and psychosis.

Our trainers are experienced and many have their own lived experience of mental health struggles, which we know really helps put into perspective what people are living with. Not only does our interactive training give you an overview of what is involved in mental health illnesses, but will give you the confidence to be able to respond to and support someone who might be struggling.

Harmless is highly experienced in providing practical and accessible training that really delivers results – our workshops help transform people’s confidence in their knowledge, working practice and skills, especially if they are providing support. The training can be applied to those supporting all ages, and is designed to encourage delegates to think about different circumstances which can lead to mental health struggles, especially in today’s climate.

As a trainer, it’s great to see people from a number of backgrounds take part in important conversations regarding mental health. Harmless reviews these sessions through anonymous feedback, and the consensus is always that we have helped to build confidence and empower individuals to respond to and signpost individuals in need of help.

Here’s what some of our delegates have to say:
‘The trainer was excellent. Very interactive session and definitely would recommend. I have learned so much today – thank you.’

‘Well presented, relevant and very good material. Every single part was so informative and delivered brilliantly!’

CPD certificates are awarded to those attending this course.
