Scottish Mental Health First Aid with Pollokshaws Community Hub.

It was a rewarding (and sweaty) couple of days last week with Pollokshaws Community Hub training up staff and volunteers on Scottish Mental Health First Aid.

Their groups are such a resource for the community and it was fab to hear how they will apply this in their front line work. Some great discussions on self-medicating, supporting psychosis and there was a great increase in confidence from participants.

I’m chuffed with the feedback, ‘Lynn has the perfect personality to create an atmosphere to feel comfortable talking about these hard issues. The course was tremendously helpful & I feel much better informed and equipped to deal with people facing these issues & also personally when to recognise when I need self care etc. Thank you Lynn!!’.
