Where do I go for help? 



 





MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AIDER


A mental health first aider can offer comfort & support in a crisis until help arrives. Mental health problems are not as frightening as most people think. When a person has a mental health problem what they need the most is someone who can listen calmly to their feelings & fears





Work colleague or friend
