Mental health challenges affect many people, yet too often, individuals feel unprepared to offer support when someone struggles. This week, Titan Training took a significant step to change that by delivering our first Mental Health First Aid course. This training equips people with the skills to recognise and respond to mental health situations confidently. We are committed to running at least one course every month throughout 2026, helping build a community that can support each other effectively.

Why Mental Health First Aid Matters
Mental health issues can arise unexpectedly and affect anyone, regardless of age or background. Often, people hesitate to intervene because they do not know how to help or fear making the situation worse. Mental Health First Aid training changes this by teaching practical steps to:
Identify signs of common mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, or panic attacks
Approach someone in distress with empathy and care
Provide initial support and guide them towards professional help if needed
This training is not about diagnosing or treating mental health conditions but about offering immediate, compassionate support until professional help is available.
What to Expect from the Course
Each Mental Health First Aid course runs over a full day and combines theory with interactive activities. Participants learn through:
Real-life scenarios and role-playing exercises
Group discussions to share experiences and insights
Clear guidance on how to respond in different situations
The course is designed for anyone interested in supporting their community, including teachers, employers, carers, and neighbours. By the end, attendees receive a certificate recognising their new skills.
Building a Supportive Community in 2026
Titan Training’s plan to hold monthly courses throughout 2026 means more people will gain confidence in handling mental health situations. This ongoing schedule allows individuals to join at a time that suits them and encourages organisations to train multiple staff members.
We believe that when more people understand mental health first aid, communities become stronger and more resilient. Early support can prevent problems from escalating and reduce the stigma around mental health.
How to Join a Course
Booking a place on one of our Mental Health First Aid courses is simple. Visit our website or contact our team to find dates and locations near you. Spaces are limited to ensure a quality learning experience, so early registration is recommended.
Whether you want to support family, friends, colleagues, or your wider community, this training offers valuable skills that make a real difference.
