Level 1 Awareness of First Aid for Mental Health

An introductory Level 1 course covering mental health awareness, recognising possible signs of distress and starting a supportive conversation. A useful starting point for individuals and teams.

These are educational courses and workplace support, not therapy, diagnosis or clinical treatment. First aiders learn to listen, support and signpost—not to replace professional care.

20+ years of first aid training experience

NEBOSH qualifications, including Managing Stress in the Workplace

University of Central Lancashire qualification in mental health and wellbeing

What your team will be able to do

  • Recognise potential signs of poor mental health
  • Start a supportive conversation without judgement
  • Signpost to appropriate professional and other support

Why it matters to your organisation

Practical learning helps teams listen, support and signpost, with clear boundaries. HSE’s six Management Standards—Demands, Control, Support, Relationships, Role and Change—provide a framework for managing work-related stress. Training supports, but does not replace, your organisation’s risk assessment or professional healthcare.
