IMPROVING mental health in Warwickshire is the aim of a series of online sessions for professionals in the county.
Be Well is a week-long series of interactive discussions focusing on improving mental wellbeing across Warwickshire.
Attendees will be able to talk about how they can collectively improve the mental health and wellbeing resources and support available in the county.
Sessions will cover a broad range of topics, such as social isolation and loneliness, wellbeing for children and young people, grant funding success, carer support, and suicide prevention.
There will be opportunities to network with other attendees and build connections with relevant local organisations.
There will also be signposting to wellbeing services available locally – including those that received recent investment from the Improving Mental Wellbeing fund, which is also funding the Be Well event.
Coun Margaret Bell, Warwickshire County Council’s spokeswoman for Adult Social Care and Health, said: “The pandemic has taught us a lot about supporting people and communities, but has also given rise to a serious mental health crisis.
“In response, we set up the Covid-19 mental health recovery fund and dedicated support, including this event, to help people protect their mental health now and into the future.
“Be Well is for anyone who wants to make a difference and connect with others with the same goal.”
All sessions will be delivered online, and attendees can go to as many or as few sessions throughout the week as they wish.
Be Well takes place on September 12-16. Visit https://api.warwickshire.gov.uk/documents/WCCC-1980322935-2197 to view the agenda.
