Julia is brilliant and covered a lot of information in a short period of time but at the right pace and with brilliant awareness of sensitivity and our attention spans. I would 100% recommend for everyone to take this course!

I found the course to be highly engaging and insightful. The structure, pace, and facilitation were very effective, and the interactive elements made the content easy to absorb. I particularly valued the safe learning environment, which allowed for open discussion and reflection. I would highly recommend this course to others. Thank you, Julia, for the amazing experience! H.

Julia was a fantastic instructor on this course. Everything was presented in a clear and understandable way. She created an environment where myself and other participants could share their own experiences of mental health issues with others in the group and this invaluable. I would thoroughly recommend Julia as an instructor for any individual or organisation wishing to train in Mental Health First Aid.

Julia was and is fantastic, with a very good manner. I felt comfortable from the off, despite the sometimes heavy content, which meant developing throughout the course was much easier than it could have been. I'd thoroughly recommend the course led by Julia.

The course was brilliant a real eye opener and it will be useful to me in and out of work. I am having my self care hour each weekend still and it’s been good for me. The first aid is already coming in handy to us as a company we have had 2 cases and I feel that the help and advice given has been useful to the colleague needing support.

I found this course very helpful and interesting. I came into the course feeling quite aware of mental health issues, but, as an awkward person, I felt that starting conversations was the hardest part for me. This course not only gave me the tools I needed to feel a bit braver in MH conversations, equipping me with better language and open questions to use, but it also expanded my understanding of mental health overall. Julia created an environment that felt welcoming, safe and encouraging throughout.

Julia was amazing, she managed to keep me fully engaged in the course for 100% of the time, which can be difficult when it is an online course as i can be easily distracted. She brought energy and enthusiasm into the course and managed to make it a completely safe place for all of us to share as much or as little as we wanted, yet ensuring no one was left on the sidelines. By making this so enjoyable and stress free i felt i learnt more than on previous similar courses. I would absolutely recommend her as a trainer and will only book my refreshers with her in the future. E Abrey. TTPI Ltd

Having completed the course four years ago I feel there has been an improvement regarding how it runs overall, as well as the content, which is both relevant and helpful. It is useful to learn specifics and then see how they can be applied to situations, always being reminded of ALGEE. Julia was a great instructor. She is friendly, knowledgeable, engaging and so clearly passionate about what she does. It is great to learn from someone like this as it feels easier and more comfortable to have the conversations that can at times be sensitive. Julia created an environment amongst the group that felt confidential and safe. This allowed people the freedom to speak up and not feel judged. Julia is a good listener, patient and overall ran the course very well. It was a really good experience from start to finish and I'm glad I got to meet her!

"Julia was very professional, approachable and knowledgeable about the subjects covered. She gave excellent information on how to support people through a range of mental health experiences and gave me the confidence to know how I can help support people during and sign post them effectively to more support. I would highly recommend this course, as it applies not only in the workplace, but to all personal life too and the skills you learn can help anyone." Emma Equilibria Massage


The course was really great. Julia was a fantastic leader. She facilitated a really comfortable environment where the whole group was very engaged and willing to contribute. She is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate, and also just a lovely person. M. Lee HM Land Registry

This is great course and my confidence in being able to support someone who needs Mental Health First Aid has increased significantly. Julia is an amazing instructor and she lead us through the course brilliantly. She was able to answer all of the questions we had and also provided us with support throughout the course. I would recommend this course and Julia to anyone. John Carpenter Help for Heroes.


"The world needs more Julia's :-)........ Julia made us all feel at ease, she was inspiring, passionate, knowledgeable. Never been on a course where I have felt so comfortable and thats down to Julia. Thank you." Anon


Great experience, lovely people; Julia was fantastic throughout. B. Oates. Krystal Hosting


"Julia is calm, professional, approachable and highly knowledgeable. Her relaxed demeanour meant that even when exploring some challenging and triggering subjects, such as depression and suicide, her first thoughts were always with the delegates before sharing her knowledge on the topic in hand. As such I felt supported and able to share my experiences with ease. This helped me ask pertinent questions and feel heard in the process. Overall, this course is invaluable and extremely useful for anyone who works with people. We can all benefit from attending this course and learning how to support the people in our lives from family members, colleagues, neighbours to strangers. I cannot recommend the course, and indeed Julia as an exceptional facilitator, highly enough."

F. Kanhom Languageline Solutions

Julia is the most incredible instructor, she is so exceptionally knowledgeable and has a true gift for sharing that knowledge. This course touches on some incredibly difficult topics, Julia manages to not only give the topics the gravity and respect they deserve but also make participants feel truly in a safe space. At no point did Julia ever make anyone feel uncomfortable or as if they were asking a silly question. The knowledge I feel that this course has given me and the tools it has equipped me with are a testament to what an asset Julia is. The world truly does need more Julias!
