Covid-19 support
See resources to look after your mental health and wellbeing during the coronavirus outbreak.
It is human to feel a whole range of emotions, from fear and worry to loneliness and sadness, during this trying time of unprecedented change and uncertainty.
Remote working, social distancing, self-isolation, and an over-arching uncertainty about the future, are affecting all of us in different ways. We need to look after our mental health and each other, now more than ever.
A recent Small Practice Information Session covered feelings of loneliness during Covid-19.
