Have you completed Mental Health First Aid Training?

July 15, 2024

We want to record this to help us gain a wider understanding of our coaches and members and how we might be able to continue to support the organisation to be more inclusive and Mental Health aware.

We also want to support our coaches / leaders / members and clubs who have an interest in and want to support mental health and wellbeing within paddlesports. We are really proud to see organisations such as Blue Space Highland and health boards promoting paddling as a way to support mental health and wellbeing - we need to help them source coaches with these additional qualifications.
