    Maintaining our mental health and well-being is critical in navigating the challenges presented by social distancing and what this entails for

    each individual and family unit.

    Young people experience anxiety, fear and loneliness yet may not have developed the ability to communicate that effectively, particularly with adult family members.

    This webinar will assist both parents and young people in understanding the impacts of social distancing on mental health and well-being, while providing practical ideas

    and strategies for support.

    • Increased understanding of the impacts associated with social distancing and it’s connection with mental health and well-being

    • Explore strategies that will help support a young person and strengthen the family unit to navigate through this period of change

    Compassion Fatigue for Carers

    Webinar Date:

    Wednesday 19th August

    Time: 10:00am – 11:30am

    Fulfilling a caring role for our loved ones is a natural by-product of loving them, and is often something we do without counting the cost for us.

    In many circumstances we don’t necessarily recognise that we are a fulfilling the role of a carer as we are simply being a parent, partner, child or friend. However, it can often feel like we are

    running on empty and that we don’t have much more to offer. This webinar will explore the concept of compassion fatigue related to the carers role, and how we maintain our sense of self and wellbeing while continuing to offer compassion and support to the people we care for.

    Relationships form the cornerstone of our lives, whether they are work based relationships, relationships we have with clinicians or service providers or personal

    relationships including partners, family and friends.

    This 1.5 hr webinar will explore what a healthy relationship is, recognise signs of an unhealthy relationship and how to maintain a healthy relationship whilst managing or supporting mental

    health challenges. It will also explore boundaries and how to respond to unhealthy relationships.
