Training

We offer training to build on the assets members already have – a toolkit to help perfect their skills. Our training sessions are on everything from building confidence to understanding how meetings work, and from the social model of disability to time management. We encourage members to take part if they’re interested in putting the skills and expertise they already have to good use, but might feel nervous about certain elements of involvement.

Check out our calendar for upcoming training.

First Aid for Mental Health Level 2 Training

Here at LIP, we are committed to amplifying the voices of people from marginalised and / or racialised groups to ensure we are moving towards a more equitable society for all, working against
the health and other inequalities in society. By giving people the skills to recognise when their neighbours, family members and others need some help at an early stage, we can avoid more
serious complications.

Providing effective mental health training tailored to the needs of these groups is essential to bridge the gap and ensure equitable care.

This course will give you a certificate that is Ofqual-approved as well as the skills and knowledge to start to help those around you. LIP is hoping that, following the training, we can work with you to develop a Cultural Mental Health network within the city.

The course will cover:

-What is First Aid for Mental Health?

-Identifying mental health conditions

-Providing advice and starting a conversation

-Stress

-Mental health conditions

-Drugs and alcohol

-First Aid for Mental Health action plan

-First Aid for Mental Health in the workplace
