Free Course: Mental Health Awareness Project
13th June 2018
Did you know one in four British adults experience at least one diagnosable mental health problem each year?
The most common is mixed anxiety and depression, but there are many other issues which have a huge impact on a person’s life and the people around them. Anyone - especially teachers and coaches - who works around people with mental health problems needs to understand each condition fully. Likewise, anyone who has seen someone experience mental health problems would benefit from understanding the meaning, causes, effects, symptoms and management of the condition.
This nationally recognised qualification covers all of these aspects and is the perfect place to start.
Swim England are proud to be able to offer a fully funded accredited Mental Health qualification to you in conjunction with The Skills Network. The Skills Network is one of the UK’s most successful providers of long distance Learning.
