“I attended Jake's MHFA course which I found not only informative but also incredibly helpful. Jake’s vast knowledge and understanding around this sensitive and often misunderstood subject was extremely enlightening and helpful.
Jake led on thought provoking discussion which easily and naturally facilitated wider discussions within the group that helped widen perspectives and support offerings when acting as a MHFA within any organisation.
I would strongly recommend Jake as an instructor of choice to any organisation which is looking at enhancing employee health and wellbeing through facilitating MHFA’s within their workforce. Thank you Jake.”
