One in five people will have suicidal thoughts at some point in their lives and yet we don’t talk about it – often until it is too late. Sadly all too many of us will be affected by the suicide of a family member, friend or work colleague.
This 2.5hr Suicide Awareness and Crisis Support course aims to:
Having taken our Suicide Awareness and Crisis Support course, delegates from a well-known global science organisation commented:
‘Very clear and useful’
‘Thanks for the session. I feel so much more informed’
‘Thank you so much – very interesting session’
‘A really valuable session’
To assess the impact of the course, we asked our delegates to rate their confidence in supporting a colleague who they think may be considering suicide at the beginning and at the end of the session. All delegates said they were unconfident or very unconfident at the start of the course. All said they felt confident or very confident at the end.
Your staff will be more productive and generally healthier if they feel that their employer is making their wellbeing a priority.
Our mental health first aid courses and wellbeing webinars will dispel the myths surrounding mental health and mental illness which create stigma, and in turn, the barriers to asking for help and support.
Following our courses, employees feel more confident in noticing, approaching and supporting colleagues who are experiencing poor mental health.
