To gain access to the Association, Youth MHFAiders approaching their expiry date will need to complete the full Youth MHFA course or the Youth MHFA Refresher course. We are currently finalising plans for the launch of the Youth MHFA Refresher course but expect this to be around Spring 2025. We do have some flexibility in allowing MHFAiders to refresh up to six months after their three-year expiry date.
If you have Youth MHFAiders due to expire before or around Spring 2025, you may wish to consider the following regarding which course may be best for your clients/MHFAiders to complete:
- If your clients/MHFAiders have not completed the new Youth MHFA course, you may want to encourage them to complete the full Youth MHFA course so that they benefit from the conversation practice and the emphasis on boundaries and self-care
- If your MHFAiders are not regularly active in the role/have not used their skills much they may also benefit from completing the full course for a more comprehensive refreshing of their skills and knowledge to help support their confidence in their MHFAider role
We encourage you to use your discretion where appropriate but remind you of the importance of ensuring skills are appropriately kept up to date. If you have any queries, please contact instructorsupport@mhfaengland.org
