Why is Mental Health First Aid Important?

Mental health issues are common, and they can affect anyone. Many employees may be struggling with things like stress, anxiety, or depression, but they may not know where to turn or how to ask for help. By training your team in Mental Health First Aid, you ensure that there’s someone there to listen, offer support, and guide them towards the help they need.

Having employees trained in Mental Health First Aid is an important part of creating a supportive work environment where everyone feels safe and valued. It can also help you:

Recognise when someone might be struggling with their mental health
Offer the right support and create a safe space for them to talk
Know when to seek professional help and direct someone to the right services
Encourage a workplace culture that’s open and supportive of mental health

What is Mental Health First Aid?
