Youth Mental Health First Aid Training in Birmingham

Following the success of the previous Youth Mental Health First Aid Training, The Council of European Jamaats is pleased to present another YMHFA training in Birmingham.

Our Youth Mental Health First Aid (YMHFA) training is for anyone who works with, lives with or supports young people aged 8-18. We train the adults in a young person’s life to have the skills and confidence to step in, offer first aid and guide them towards the support they need. In doing so, they can speed up a young person’s recovery, stop issues from developing into a crisis, and ultimately save lives.

But more than that, by giving these adults the information and skills to look after their own mental health, we want them to set an example for young people. We want adults to be able to show young people that mental ill health is a part of life in just the same way as physical ill health, that it’s OK to talk about and it’s OK to ask for help.

We hope that by giving people the tools to open up these conversations, we can empower them to create mentally healthy, supportive environments in their families, schools, youth groups and communities.

Let’s create a future where we all know how to look after our own mental wellbeing, so preventable issues don’t arise in the first place. A future where every young person has access to support if they need it.

Date: Saturday 14 & Saturday 28 September 2019 (held over two Saturdays!)
Time: 10:00-18:30
Venue: 17 Clifton Road | Balsall Heath | Birmingham| B12 8SX

Ages: 16 years and over

Cost: £50

- This is a non-residential program.

- Participants must attend both days for successful completion of training.

Lifesaving event

Salaams All,

Along with BIMA (British Islamic Medical Association), we will be holding a Lifesaving event teaching Basic Life support and important first aid skills on the 28th of September after Salaatul Asr. This event will be held across the UK, at many different Islamic centres.

'Hal min nasirin yansurnaa' - the cry for help Imam Hussain called within the same month that the Lifesaving event will be held. The event will help equip us with these necessary essential skills so that we can be prepared if any emergency were to happen.

We are currently looking for BLS trained individuals to volunteer in assisting with the delivery of this event to our jamaat. If interested in volunteering, please contact Mahdiyah Bandali on 07926146903.

Save this date!

Jazakallah Khayr
