Community Capacity Building

Our borough has a rich community life with dedicated organisations who work hard to deliver for individuals on a daily basis.

To support this incredible work, the Community Development Department are delighted to introduce a calendar of training to help encourage, protect and enhance these organisations.

You will find all details below on the variety of courses on offer, as well as dates and venues.

These courses are for leaders of community groups and each course can accept a maximum of two people per organisation.

This initiative is supported through The Executive Office District Council Good Relations Programme.

MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID

Mental Health First Aid Training teaches individuals how to approach someone who may be experiencing a mental health crisis or distress. It provides them with practical skills to offer initial support, listen non-judgmentally, and guide the person towards appropriate professional help.

Early intervention and prevention can be instrumental in preventing more severe mental health issues and potentially saving lives.

Price per Learner: £10
