Mental Health First Aid Refresher Course

In line with the requirements for physical first aid, we recommend that people who have taken a Mental Health First Aid England course refresh their skills and knowledge every 3 years. It also provides a chance to get up-to-date on the latest evidence base for mental health issues and support which is rapidly moving forwards.Delegates who have attended an MHFA England Adult Two Day or One Day course or an Armed Forces MHFA Two Day course within the last three years are eligible to attend.

As part of the MHFA course, you receive three years of support and benefits,which includes access to the MHFAider Support App®.The delegate will receive an email from mhfa.england@mhfaengland.org ahead of the first live session with instructions on how to access the app.The app has been developed by MHFA England to support MHFAiders®, providing you with access to exclusive resources, the ability to log reflective conversations to promote wellbeing, signposting, and wellbeing support via the 24/7 text support service Shout.

The app is compatible with both iOS and Android devices and can also be accessed by a web browser.
