Peter Larkum Reviews

Pete is a brilliant instructor. He made me feel very at ease with various topics about mental health. He's an asset to the mental health community.

Peter was better than excellent. His energy, delivery, enthusiasm and content delivered was outstanding and I have nothing but praise for the course and Peter as the instructor. The days felt upbeat, sensitive and fun. I shall encourage others around me to attend Peter's courses. I am keeping my eyes peeled for any other trainings he may offer.

Brilliant course with an incredible tutor! Thank you!

A thorough course very well presented. Peter's experience, knowledge and understanding come through across the two days to guide you through what can be a challenging subject with difficult themes to give confidence in how to approach and deal with this area.

Great instructor. Pete made the learning of so much information easy to follow and engaging. I already had some understanding and awareness around MHFA, but I feel more knowledgable and more confident in my role having been on this course with Pete Larkum.

Given the heavy and emotionally challenging nature of the course material, it was impressive how you handled it with sensitivity. You managed to balance the depth of the content with real-world applications and interactive discussions, which helped me not only absorb the information but also understand how to apply it practically. Your communication skills are outstanding. You have a unique talent for breaking down complex concepts into digestible pieces, and your use of anecdotes and real-life examples made the material relatable and easier to grasp. I sincerely appreciate your dedication and passion for mental health. You have inspired me and equipped me with the knowledge and confidence to make a positive impact in work and with my colleagues and clients. The course was a wonderfully positive experience, and I had a great couple of days gaining valuable skills and insights.

An eye opener to scale of Mental health, brilliant course making me more aware of those around me and my own self care.

Despite some serious subject matters Pete was able to share excellent knowledge and keep us all energised throughout.

Such a great course, the tutor was very knowledgeable and engaging.

This course truly opened my eyes to the signs and symptoms of common mental health conditions. I learned valuable techniques for active listening, which will be instrumental in approaching someone in crisis. The role-playing exercises equipped me to have a calm and productive conversation with someone experiencing a mental health issue. Peter's passion for mental health awareness and clear explanations made the course engaging and informative. Walking out of this course, I feel confident in my ability to approach and offer support to others who may need it.

The best instructor I have ever had for a course. Very engaging, challenging and amusing when it needed to be. He knew his stuff and delivered the course within a language we could understand and take in.

superb course , a real eye opener to mental health.

great course run by a very knowledgeable course leader.

Have an open mind and dive in! You would be surprised about few things that you might never have linked to mental health issue and in process will have a good learning and better awareness.

I would advise to take the course as it makes you think about things you don't know

The training was helpful, relevant and down to earth, would highly recommend Mentality.

It's informative, short and concise, an hour well spent.

It was one of the best mental health courses I have done. It was very clear, concise but was also very informative. I also felt that it gave an excellent overview of the topic for those who may not have much experience or exposure. I have asked my manager if we can roll it out to all of our employees

Go for it. It was a very helpful, considered and easy to follow course, with some great take-aways to put into action.

I think soft skills are not well taught in the area of STEM that I work in, this is a useful course. It's one of the many tools that managers need to build and maintain high performing teams.

Get involved, it’s a great opportunity to discuss with other people and support with how you instigate.

Do it! It will provide you with a better understanding of the signs of mental health illness, some tools regarding making resonable adjustments, techniques for getting the team talking and feeling comfortable talking to you about how they are feeling.
