Each year, one in every five Australians will experience a mental illness and has been identified as the fourth highest disease group contributing to burden of disease on Australian population. The COVID-19 global pandemic has only sought to increase and/or magnify the distress and frequency of mental health problems in society. As society and the community start to return to a pre-pandemic way of living; the need to identify, support and guide those around us should be seen as priority especially in the workplace where many of us spend much of our time. At Saunders Safety & Training (SS&T); we understand the need for Australian Business to review and improve their own capability in the mental health environment. We are pleased to have partnered with Anna Feringa; an award-winning International Speaker, Author, Trainer, Health & Safety Influencer and Mental Health Consultant to bring you our fourth installment of the Mental Health First Aid training.

Depression, including suicidal thoughts,
feelings or behaviours
Anxiety, including panic attacks

Effects of alcohol or substance disorder, including
