HAS THE PANDEMIC LEFT YOU SHORT ON MONEY?
Webinar for Families
The cluster have put together a 4-week webinar based on anxieties, loss and coping strategies for both adults and children during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Both Bev and Louise have both put a lot of input into the webinar so we think it will be particularly useful for families as the information is coming from professional counsellors. Each week there will be a chance for parents to ask any questions they may have relating to the webinar and we will also be offering our support to them through telephone calls if they would like some extra support. There will also be a list of resources where we can signpost people to for extra help and support if they would like it. Each session will end with some mindfulness as well.
