This course offers basic general information about mental health problems. The knowledge presented and under
standing developed in the course helps to remove stigma and fear and to give confidence in approaching a person in distress. A variety of information is given on the course including listening skills, attitudes to mental health issues, the impact on alcohol and drugs on mental health, understanding depression, psychosis and anxiety and how to initially respond to someone in distress. The course runs over 2 full days. safeTALK Training:
safeTALK is a half-day (3-4 hours) training course that can help you make a difference. Know what to do if someone's suicidal by following the easy to remember TALK steps - Tell, Ask, Listen and Keep-safe. These practical steps offer immediate help to someone having thoughts of suicide and helps you both move forward to connect them with more specialised support. suicideTALK Training
This course is a short exploration and awareness-raising session of talking about suicide and runs for 1-3 hours. By dispelling the myth that talking about suicide promotes suicidal behaviour, suicideTALK provides a solid foundation for suicide prevention. It aims to reduce stigma around suicide and promote awareness within the community. The talk is a good starting point for those who would like to learn more about suicide and attitudes surrounding the issue. It is flexible to meet the needs of each group and is aimed at all members and groups within communities. For businesses and community groups interested in training for both courses - within Perthshire and across Scotland - please contact me for further information and prices. A minimum of 8 and a maximum of 15 participants is required to provide training.
