Transpire Training Limited  Reviews 

Took part in the 2 day course. It was really interesting and Ally our coach was absolutely fantastic. I definitely recommend.

Brilliant course run by the lovely Annette. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Annette Dix was an outstanding Mental Health First Aider instructor. Her engaging teaching style kept the course interesting from start to finish, and she created a welcoming, supportive environment where everyone felt comfortable participating and asking questions. She was incredibly flexible, adapting the pace of the sessions to suit the group while ensuring everyone understood the material before moving on. Her knowledge and experience were evident throughout, and she explained complex topics in a clear, practical, and relatable way.

The course covered a wide range of important mental health topics, including understanding what mental health is and how it can fluctuate, recognising the signs and symptoms of common mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, psychosis, eating disorders, and substance misuse, and understanding the factors that can affect a person's mental wellbeing.

We also learned how to identify when someone may be experiencing a mental health crisis, including suicidal thoughts, self-harm, panic attacks, traumatic events, and psychotic episodes. Annette provided clear guidance on how to respond safely and confidently in these situations, using the Mental Health First Aid action plan to approach conversations with empathy, listen without judgement, offer reassurance and information, and encourage appropriate professional support.

The training also explored stigma surrounding mental health, the importance of early intervention, recovery and resilience, self-care strategies, boundaries for Mental Health First Aiders, and the range of support services and resources available. Throughout every topic, Annette encouraged open discussion, shared practical examples, and ensured everyone had opportunities to ask questions and reflect on real-life scenarios.

Annette's enthusiasm, professionalism, and compassionate approach made the training both enjoyable and memorable. I left feeling far more confident in recognising signs of poor mental health, supporting others appropriately, and knowing where to guide people for further help. I would highly recommend Annette to anyone undertaking Mental Health First Aid training. She is an exceptional instructor who makes an important subject accessible, engaging, and empowering.

Far too long. The course could easily be delivered in an afternoon or morning. It feels that Transpire make the course 2 days purely so they can charge companies and organisations more money for the length of time to deliver it. Would certainly not recommend and people who give positive reviews only do so out of fear of offending the trainer (hence why I am calling myself anonymous!). This is the most honest review you'll see.

Very helpful and the lady was very nice

The training was great and finished with me feeling better equipped to deal with mental health first aid for those in my workplace!

Thank you for such an engaging and informative course. I feel much more confident and would definitely recommend .

I attended a 2 day MHFA course lead by Ali who was great. I feel more confident in supporting people in the workplace. Would definitely recommend.

I attended the two-day MHFA course online and found it very worthwhile. Ali was a patient and knowledgeable tutor who created a welcoming environment, making it easy to share ideas and engage in role play. I would strongly recommend this training for supporting mental health in the workplace.

great trainer (thank you Ali) and an interesting topic

Ali was a great instructor, went through some serious and important information regarding different mental health difficulties. Our group came away understanding the signs and symtpoms and how to help support people as a mental health first aider

It was a 2 day course with lots of great information and very easy to understand.

A very well delivered, informative and engaging course. I really enjoyed the layout of the course, with various different activities to keep it interesting. Annette was clearly very knowledgeable and created a really welcoming, comfortable environment and I really loved the emphasis on looking after ourselves as well as others.

I was very nervous about starting the MHFA course, Diane who led the course was amazing and her experience really helped us. The content was somewhat dark at times, but the emphasis on self care and that we could leave the room when it felt too much was fantastic. I would definitely recommend using Transpire for MHFA course to anyone interested in doing it.

Brilliant MHFA course delivered by Marie. Really impressed with the content and was very engaging throughout.

Did it with a lovely group as well in Milton Keynes. Definitely recommended!

Well run with skilful trainer who steered us through sensitive subject areas and gave us clear guidance and information. Felt inclusive and supportive environment to learn.

Extremely helpful and informative course, extremely well delivered.

MHFA 2 Day Course
I completed a 2 day Mental Health First Aid course with Ali and found it to be really informative, in a easy to follow delivery, Ali was brilliant, made it very interactive and relevant to all of the attendees roles. Would Recommend.

The course instructor was brilliant, she made the group feel very comfortable and had great knowledge!

A well delivered course in easy to understand language. The tutor (Ali) knew her stuff and made us all feel comfortable all the way through the course. I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone considering working in this field or even to help friends or family.
