MHFA
Such a fantastic and informative course and our trainer Kev (big dog) was great. I would recommend all organisations implement MHFA as part of their mental health and well-being strategy.
Fantastic course - would highly recommend for anyone!
Wow, what an engaging and truly fascinating course. By far the best I have ever been on.
Mental Health is such a minefield to most people and I found the course so enlightening. It has really made me think more about my own mental health and how I can help others. Additionally, how I would like to further my knowledge in the field.
Thank you Kevin for a fantastic 2 days. The course was so informative without feeling overwhelming and the takeaways will give me a lot more reading and learning to continue the journey.

Kevin delivered an awesome training session over two days. This certainly was a real eye opener into the world of mental health and well being.
The Mental Health First Aider course was just the right balance of information, education and knowlege delivered in a very engaging way. The material to take away was also of superb quality.

The course was really insightful and helpful. I feel far more aware of my own mental health and mental health disorders and will put the learning in to practice to help anyone in crisis.
The instructor was brilliant, very knowledgable and kept the 2 day course interesting.

Want to commission MHFA, look no further
As a commissioner and a participant to the MHFA course I give a big thumbs up to BDLD. Kevin Moore is an excellent trainer. I decided to commission additional training.
Informative and Eye opening!!
Kevin from BDLD was an excellent facilitator. The course itself was extremely eye opening and has really made us think about what we can do as Mental health first aiders in the workplace. The course was extremely informative, opening our eyes to the signs and signals that someone may be in crisis, and equipped us with several tools to help people during this time. The content was easy to follow and some of the videos shared over the two days really helped to bring it to life. I look forward to reading through all the materials, and hopefully attending more BDLD courses in the future.
Great Course!
This was honestly one of the best courses I've ever been on. I can't stop telling people about it. It was genuinely so engaging and even there was so much to learn in 2 days, Kevin managed to do it in a way that wasn't overwhelming. He was an amazing instructor and you could tell he had a genuine concern in ensuring we were all safe and comfortable talking about the sensitive topics. Anyone thinking about doing this course, i'd recommend for sure! You'll wish you'd done it sooner!
Brilliant!
Kevin was a brilliant trainer! Content and timings were well balanced and informative!

I am so glad I signed up to become a Mental Health First Aider and I would highly recommend this course.
Kevin was absolutely brilliant; he was very informative and engaging. Before the course, I thought I had a good understanding of mental health but my eyes were definitely opened over the two day course and I learned a huge amount.
Brilliant course
Brilliant course. Kevin is an excellent facilitator. Very knowledgeable, personable and gave great examples of situations which may occur. All founded on massively useful information.
