Mental Health Training

YANA invests in Mental Health training courses to enable those in agriculture and associated rural businesses to support colleagues, family and friends and enhance mental health support within the sector and across East Anglia.

We organise dates and places for training, which take place during the autumn, winter and early spring. From the donations we receive we fund the costs of the course, although sometimes organisations make a donation towards the costs for members of their staff.

We offer four types of training

MHFA: Refresher

Refresh and update your MHFA skills in this half-day course.

MHFA: Aware

An ideal introduction to talking about mental health.
