Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) England is a social enterprise with a vision to improve the mental health of the nation. We’re the country’s leading provider of Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training, with expertise built on 15 years of delivering training to over 20,000 employers. 

Through normalising society’s attitudes and behaviours around mental health, and by developing the skills we need to look after our own and others’ wellbeing, we want to create mentally healthy workplaces for all. Our in-person and online training courses are grounded in research, rigorously tested, and continually developed to keep them at the cutting edge of research and best practice. 

Currently, we are undertaking an ambitious Digital Transformation Programme so that we can achieve our digital vision to seamlessly connect and engage Customers, Clients, Members and Staff and support our mission to train one in ten people in mental health knowledge, awareness and skills.
