There are Mental Health Awareness in Sport courses
running across the Country, and we'd like to publicise
the courses available. They have been specifically
designed for people working in sport, and coaches
in particular. Coaches operating at any level,
from community / grassroots to elite, will benefit
from the course. Other people working in sport,
such as FA County staff, Local Authority Sports
Development Officers, County Sports Partnership
employees, governing body Equality Officers and
NHS sports staff should also benefit from attending.
The courses have been running nationally for a
few weeks, and the feedback from trainees has
been really positive - attendees have said that
the course is informative, well presented and
practical.
It's two hours long and free to attend. Trainees
don't need any previous knowledge of mental health.
