We are pleased to share with you that we can now offer the 2-day Mental Health First Aid Course (MHFA England) for free, to professionals and volunteers working with vulnerable adults. This course is funded by Public Health at Somerset County Council and is part of the implementation of the Somerset Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy.

However, we try to ensure we take one-two applications per organisation on each course. All applicants will be contacted after the closing date letting them know if they have been successful or not.
