Outstanding

Ian's knowledge and passion for the subject make for an outstanding course. He presents a difficult subject with care and empathy. I left feeling empowered and equipped to assist both myself and others moving forward. A shame there aren't six stars available.

MHFA Refresher Course

I have worked with Ian before. His passion for Mental Health awareness and education is unquestionable. I have relied on his experience outside of training and found his support to be critical. Having completed MHFA 2 Day, Suicide Awareness and now MHFA Refresher training, We Are Hummingbird gets my strongest recommendation.

Couldn't have asked for more

Couldn't have asked for more. Ian is a training superstar, clearly he has worked very hard to hone his skills. Ian's passion for educating others so they can better support those around them shine's through. His approach was compassionate, well organised and timely all things that I appreciate in a training course.

Excellent training

Excellent training, Ian was really knowledgeable and the way he presents the topics, it was easy to stay engaged for the full 3 hours. It increased my confidence in communicating with clients clearly and skillfully around suicide.

Brilliant training course

This is the second MHFA course I have taken run by Ian at We are Hummingbird, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends or colleagues. It's honestly the best course I have taken, not only for the content, but for Ian's engaging and informative delivery. Thanks again for the great course!

A course that will give you confidence to help and support others.

I really didn't know what to expect when I signed up for this course. This is a subject very close to my heart due to personal experience, the course was delivered by Ian with the upmost sensitivity, without shying away from dealing with the tough subject matter. Everything that I learnt on this day made so much sense and I have many takeaways. The main one being much more confidence that I would be able to help and support anyone in need.

I will be forever grateful that I was given the opportunity to attend this course as I feel that what I have learnt on this day will stay with me forever. Thank you.

Amazing!

This was a course I wasn't looking forward to due to the subject. By the end of the training I can now say how I wish I'd completed this course sooner!
The trainer was amazing, dealing with such a sensitive area and facilitating difficult conversations.
I would highly recommend this course/trainer/company

Ian is a fantastic facilitator

Ian is a fantastic facilitator. He really puts you at ease on a difficult topic area, gives a good baseline knowledge and then builds it up. There is a good balance of videos, listening and contributing. I can't recommend him enough, a brilliant training session.
