I recently completed the Mental Health First Aid Training with SoundCastle and could not recommend enough! The course was thorough, whilst being engaging and highly informative. Hannah, the trainer, was very reassuring and made the sessions very enjoyable. Thanks so much Soundcastle!

I have just completed the Soundcastle Mental Health First Aid Training and have no hesitations in recommending both Soundcastle and the course. Hannah created a safe and supportive space and we were all able to settle quickly and learn effectively. This is such an important topic and course and I now feel I have tools under my belt to effectively be a Mental Health First Aider. The training was thought provoking, clear and informative. Thank you so much!

I have recently completed the Soundcastle Mental Health First Aid Training and I can't recommend it highly enough. The course was run so efficiently and professionally, and addressed challenging subject matter with sensitivity and warmth. It was a safe space in which to develop crucial understanding and skills around mental health. I am very glad that I have done this training and thank Soundcastle for their thoughtful course development, research and expertise.

I completed the Mental Health First Aid training course run by Soundcastle and I highly recommend this course to ANYONE. It needs no prior knowledge of the mental health space, it is informative, inclusive, collaborative, excellently well-communicated and supported from an admin perspective and the delivery of it (I did the online version) was superb. I have learnt about myself, about the world of mental health and wellbeing and feel much more equipped to have conversations with anyone struggling with their mental health. HUGE applause to the team at Soundcastle for doing this work - everyone should do this!! Thank you Soundcastle x

Soundcastle ran an excellent training session for us around managing mental health and finding boundaries in the arts. We received great feedback from an engaged group of participants and will definitely be in touch with the organisation again for future training events. We have also been in touch with individual members of staff as part of our mentoring programme for the past few years. Again, the feedback and learning from these sessions has been extremely positive and inspiring!

Reply from Soundcastle 2024.10.22

Thank you SO much, Sound Connections team! It’s always a pleasure to collaborate and we loved creating this session for you and your community. Looking forward to the next!

I did mental health first aid training with Soundcastle and can’t recommend it highly enough. It was extremely well structured and led with great resources and engaging & interactive content. The course leaders were brilliant and extremely caring. It was also quite a small group of trainees which gave us all plenty of attention and time for discussion/questions. Would recommend to all arts organisations working with vulnerable groups. Thank you!

Reply from Soundcastle 2024.01.26

Thank you Dorothy, it was brilliant to have you on the course and we really appreciate you taking the time to post this review. Please do keep sharing the MHFA - we hope you're finding the learning to be really valuable in your work!

I attended a one day mental health first aid course with Soundcastle. It was absolutely fantastic. The trainers created an open and supportive environment in which to discuss challenging themes safely. The content was interesting and perfectly pitched for the group. I now feel far better prepared to discuss mental health in the future.

Reply from Soundcastle 2023.03.29

This is wonderful to hear! Thank you for joining us for this training with such openness and readiness to share. Congratulations on the qualification!

This course was really rewarding, and it’s so imperative that we all work to better educate ourselves on how to support others with their mental health. I would recommend this course to all employers and employee’s!

Such a beautiful team of people ❤️
