Youth MHFA Refresher Course for Schools

 The Youth Mental Health First Aid Refresher course is designed for staff who have already completed the full Youth MHFA training and want to revisit key learning, rebuild confidence, and reflect on their role in supporting young people. 

It’s easy for confidence to dip over time - especially when:

• situations feel complex 
• you’re unsure how to respond 
• or you haven’t needed to use the training recently 

This session provides a space to:

• revisit core concepts 
• reflect on real experiences 
• feel more confident moving forward

The course revisits key areas of Youth MHFA, including:

• Recognising signs of poor mental health 
• Approaching and supporting a young person 
• Responding in a crisis 
• Understanding your role and boundaries 
• Looking after your own wellbeing

This isn’t about re-learning everything from scratch.

It’s a chance to:

• pause 
• reflect 
• reconnect with your skills 

Delivered in a calm, supportive way, the session helps staff feel reassured and better equipped in their role.

Half-day session (typically 4 hours), delivered online or in-person 

Ideal for: 

• Individuals 
• Small staff groups 
• Whole-school refresher sessions

This course is suitable for anyone who has previously completed the Youth MHFA full course in the last 3 years and wants to refresh their knowledge. 

Whether you’re looking to refresh a small group or run a session for your wider team, I’d be happy to talk through options.
