In partnership with the Richmond Football Club, Mental Health First Aid Australia and the Murray PHN, Aligned Leisure is proud to be offering FREE Mental Health First Aid training to our local community later this month.

With approximately 20% of Australian adults experiencing a common mental illness each year, this training has been designed to help educate our community in how to navigate the sometimes daunting conversations needed to support a friend, family member or loved one who is experiencing mental health concerns.

Using a practical, evidence-based Action Plan, course participants will learn how to recognise the signs and symptoms of someone who may be experiencing a mental health problem or crisis, and learn the skills to confidently offer help and support.

Key MHFA training outcomes include:

  • Increased mental health knowledge
  • Increased confidence in providing mental health first aid
  • Decreasing stigmatising attitudes
  • Increased support to others
