Mental Health First Aid Refresher
Keep your Mental Health First Aiders confident, competent, and current. This half-day refresher renews skills, updates knowledge, and re-energises the people your organisation depends on to support colleague wellbeing.
MHFA training decays — regular refreshers are what keep your first aiders effective
Mental Health First Aiders carry real responsibility. Without regular renewal, confidence fades, knowledge becomes outdated, and the people your organisation trained to support others can start to feel unsupported themselves. A structured refresher changes that.
Renewed confidence and updated knowledge for your Mental Health First Aiders
- Revisit the MHFA action plan and practise applying it to contemporary workplace mental health scenarios with confidence
- Update knowledge on current mental health conditions and trends — including emerging awareness around burnout, anxiety, and neurodivergent experiences
- Strengthen active listening and supportive conversation skills through guided practice in a safe, peer-supported environment
- Explore the boundaries of the MHFA role and address any areas of uncertainty or concern that have arisen since initial training
- Reflect on the emotional demands of being an MHFA and develop a sustainable self-care plan to protect your own wellbeing in the role
- Reconnect with fellow MHFAs, share experiences, and strengthen the peer network that underpins an effective organisational MHFA programme
For any qualified Mental Health First Aider who wants to stay sharp and supported
This session is designed exclusively for employees who have completed a full Mental Health First Aid qualification and are looking to renew their skills, update their knowledge, and maintain confidence in the role.
Employees who completed MHFA England Two-Day or other recognised MHFA qualifications and want to refresh their skills and renew their confidence in supporting colleagues.
People professionals responsible for maintaining an active MHFA network who want a reliable, high-quality annual refresher to keep their first aiders engaged and effective.
Any employer — from SME to large enterprise — that has invested in MHFA training and wants to ensure that investment continues to deliver real value for employees who need support.
How the Mental Health First Aid Refresher is delivered
Tailored to your MHFA network’s experience and the specific mental health challenges your organisation faces — not a generic tick-box renewal.
Tailored Onboarding
We speak with your HR or wellbeing lead to understand how your MHFA programme has been running, what challenges your first aiders have encountered, and any specific topics or scenarios that need addressing in the session.
Refresher Delivery
An engaging half-day session delivered onsite or online. Your MHFAs leave with renewed confidence, updated knowledge, and a reinvigorated sense of purpose in their role — ready to support colleagues effectively for another year.
Ongoing Support
Post-session resources help MHFAs continue developing between refreshers. We can also advise on building peer supervision structures and wellbeing check-ins to sustain your MHFA network over the long term.
