Introduction
It is almost impossible to turn on the news or to read a newspaper without the mention of mental health and the recent Covid-19 outbreak has brought this topic into sharper focus.
This two-hour webinar has been designed to provide an introduction to mental health, with the aim of understanding more about some of the most commonly diagnosed disorders, as well as provide advice and guidance on how to support colleagues who have issues with their mental health.
Session Objectives
By the end of the session, you will be able to:
- Explain what is meant by mental health

Additional Information
This is a highly participative and interactive webinar, which has been written and developed by Miranda Smythe, who delivers training in mental health for a number of charities locally and nationally.
