We’re scheduling in some dates for this course shortly. In the meantime if you have any questions please email the CHSG team at info@chsg.co.uk or fill out the form below to register your interest in the course.

Mental Health Aware is an introductory four-hour session to raise awareness of mental health. It is designed to give you an a basic understanding of mental health and some common issues, as well as an introduction into looking after your own mental health.

Since January 2017, CHSG has been offering subsidised places on the Mental Health First Aid Courses, run in accordance with MHFA England. These courses have now become a permanent fixture of CHSG’s training courses.

Within the Construction Industry, Health and Wellbeing has not been a primary focus, until recently. CHSG is progressively focusing on the promotion and understanding of working and dealing with Mental Health and Wellbeing in the workplace. By subsidising these courses, CHSG is able to make their training more widely available to both members and non-members.
