Mental Health and Life was founded in order to break down the barriers that stand between people and a happy and contented life in the UK. We see it as our mission to communicate to all members of the UK community – including ethnic minorities, women and other historically marginalized groups – the important role mental health plays in determining their overall quality of life.
As such, we have developed an array of courses that combine outreach and education to open eyes and provide real-world solutions to what may have seemed like insurmountable problems. Our Adult MHFA courses are the perfect starting point for anyone who wants to know more about the link between mental health and happiness.
Our Adult MHFA courses are designed to introduce newcomers to the concepts of good mental health and to help them connect the dots between these basic principles and greater personal fulfilment.
Our ‘Become Mental Health Aware’ course is a half-day course that introduces individuals to the concept of mental health while at the same time debunking the stigma often associated with the mental health profession. Students are introduced to fundamental mental health issues and provided with simple tools for monitoring and maintaining optimal mental health.
The Adult MHFA Champion Course provides a more comprehensive view of mental health issues than the Become Mental Health Aware Course. This is a 1-Day course designed to provide you with the knowledge you need to identify certain mental health issues. You will also learn some simple intervention techniques that will enable you to advocate for mental health.
The Adult MHFA Mental Health First Aider Course is a 2-Day course that makes a deep dive into the issues that affect mental health and wellbeing. You will learn how to identify triggers that can initiate a downward mental health spiral and learn some tricks on how to avoid them. You will also learn some simple yet effective skills that can be employed to help others in distress.

The mental health situation in the UK is one that has been deteriorating for decades but in recent years has quietly reached crisis proportions. Statistics say that 1 in 3 people in the United Kingdom are likely suffering from some type of mental health condition.
A sad indicator of that disturbing fact is that suicides among female teens are now the highest they have ever been. But it’s not just young women who are succumbing to mental health issues. Men 40-50 actually have the highest suicide rate of any single demographic group. And construction workers are more likely to commit suicide these days than people in any other profession.
It’s time to turn the tide on the issue of mental health in the UK and that is exactly what our Adult MHFA Courses are designed to do.
At Mental Health & Life we understand that we will not be able to fix the entire problem ourselves, but we are determined to get things moving in the right direction with our Adult MHFA Courses, our Adult Mental Health First Aid Courses and our innovative Online Adult Mental Health First Aid courses.
These important courses provide a platform from which to raise awareness of the importance of mental health and to provide real-world practical tools to deal with mental health problems. In addition, we have also launched the Mental Health First Aid Crisis/Chat Line that provides information and assistance to those in need 24 hours a day.
Mental Health & Life was started to help break down societal resistance regarding the discussion and treatment of mental health issues. Our courses are designed to bring the topic of mental health out of the shadows, to cast off the stigma associated with mental health issues, and to provide a more productive framework for dealing with these issues in the real world.
