This is what others have said about the course:

• Fantastic would highly recommend for anyone working with children or young people.

• The course was well lead and designed and helped me get a greater understanding in how to help young people in a crisis, how to spot symptoms etc.

• Clear and informative. Well delivered and paced.

• It has developed my confidence in having those conversations. The manual is a great resource.

• The course hours sounded long and there was lot of information to cover in 2 days but it was planned well and the time went by very fast, I found it very interesting and the course facilitators were lovely and very knowledgeable. I felt I learned a lot!
