This course is available as either an online or face-to-face training session. See 'book a course' section below for options. 

We believe that mental health should be treated equally to physical health – and just like physical first aid, Mental Health First Aid training should be kept up to date.  

The four-hour MHFA Refresher course gives you the chance to:  

• Renew your skills

• Update your knowledge of mental health support

• Practice applying the Mental Health First Aid action plan

• Access three years of MHFAider® Support and Benefits

 

Format
This is a half day course delivered either face-to-face or online  

Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities

We limit numbers to 25 people per course so that the instructor can keep people safe and supported while they learn
 

How often should MHFA England skills be refreshed? 
Just like physical first aid, we recommend that MHFAiders® attend a Refresher course every three years. 

If it's time to refresh your skills, book onto an MHFA Refresher course now to renew your skills.

By keeping your mental health knowledge up to date with the MHFA Refresher, you’ll be eligible to take our internationally recognised MHFAider® qualification.

Please note that the MHFA Refresher is only for people who have completed an Adult Mental Health First Aider, MHFA Champion, or Armed Forces Mental Health First Aider course.
