Supporting Youth Mental Health

Congratulations to our first cohort of Youth Mental Health First Aiders!

In December 2025, eight Seconde students became the first British Section students to undertake and complete a two-day training course to become First Aiders for Youth Mental Health.

This externally recognised qualification run by the UK organisation Nuco Training, including a written and practical assessment, helps students build knowledge and understanding about mental health issues, recognising signs and symptoms, and builds confidence in having supportive peer-to-peer conversations about mental health. More students are scheduled to complete the training later this year.
