"I wasn't expecting to take so much out of the course...
“The Mental Health Awareness program really made me realise how many aspects of mental health are not addressed to the extent which they should be onboard.
“I really hope that I can implement better practices going forward and take this information onboard my next vessel, as well as share it with my friends in the industry to help promote awareness!
“Thank you to Andy for being so interactive and passionate about the course.”
