​
If you are a Mental Health First Aider® you have skills for life that support you and the people around you.
​
We believe that mental health should be treated equally to physical health – and just like physical first aid, Mental Health First Aider® training should be kept up-to-date.
In addition to updating your MHFAider® skills, completing this Refresher course gives you a further:
-
Three years access to the MHFAider Support App® with 24/7 digital support
-
Access to exclusive resources, ongoing learning opportunities, and the benefit of joining England’s largest community of trained MHFAiders®
The four hour MHFAider® Refresher course will empower you to:
-
Keep your awareness of mental health supports current
-
Update your knowledge of mental health and what influences it
-
Practice applying the Mental Health First Aid action plan
Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities. Numbers are limited to 25 people per course so that the instructor can keep people safe and supported while they learn
**Please note that the MHFA Refresher is only for people who have completed an Adult (2 day) Mental Health First Aider® course.**
How often should MHFAider® skills be refreshed?
Just like physical first aid, we recommend that Mental Health First Aiders® attend a Refresher course every three years. If it's time to refresh your skills, book onto a Manx Minds MHFAider® Refresher course now and feel confident that you are performing your vital role safely.
MHFAider® training doesn't stop when the course comes to an end. Completing the Refresher course means you will have an additional 3 years access to the MHFA App. Via the app, MHFA England offers continuous support for MHFAiders®, well beyond your initial certification, or Refresher, to ensure you can continue to lead impactful MHFA interventions.
The MHFAider Support App® provides automatic 24/7 digital support. From there, you'll find exclusive resources, ongoing learning opportunities to grow your confidence, and gain the benefit of joining England’s largest community of trained MHFAiders®.​
This support will give you an opportunity to:
-
Keep your learning alive 
-
Quickly reference something 
-
Connect you with a group of people improving the mental health of the nation
