Are you joining the Association of Mental Health First Aiders?

This is a new and exciting development opportunity from MHFA England where current MHFAiders will be able to access further support, information and training to enhance the mental health support they provide to their colleagues.

What do you need to do?

1. For current Mental Health First Aiders with an active MHFAider certificate (dated within the last 3 years), you don't need to take any action. You will receive information from MHFA England via an email throughout July - September, which will provide instructions on how to join the Association of Mental Health First Aiders for free.

2. For anyone who would like to become a Mental Health First Aider and therefore join the Association of Mental Health First Aiders, you will need to attend a Mental Health First Aid course. Once you have attended the course, you will automatically be invited to join the Association via an email, which provides instructions on how to join for free.

We provide both in-house and online Mental Health First Aid open courses so get in touch for more information about booking a place on a Mental Health First Aid course here.

3. If you were trained as a MHFAider around 3 years ago and your accreditation is due to expire, you can renew your accreditation and join the Association of Mental Health First Aiders by attending a MHFA Refresher course. 

We provide both in-house and online MHFA Refresher open courses - please get in touch about booking a place on a MHFA Refresher course.

Membership Renewal:

When a Mental Health First Aid certificate expires, so does the MHFAider's membership. To renew their membership of the Association of Mental Health First Aiders, MHFAiders will need to attend an MHFA Refresher course which will provide them with a new MHFA certificate and extend their membership, for free, for a further 3 years.
