Webinar: Covid-19 and managing mental health

Hosted by Business Disability Forum

The topics will be discussing include:

  • How to support key workers who are in contact with others on a regular basis
  • Spotting the signs that someone who is working from home might be struggling with their mental health
  • Maintaining health and wellbeing while socially distancing or shielding
