Working from home, remotely or splitting time between home and the office (hybrid working) has become more common than ever.

Many of us have had to adjust to these new ways of working following the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in 2020. Some of us have even entered the workforce for the first time, starting working life in a remote role, without having experienced an office-based job.

Working from home can have benefits and perks that some of us enjoy (bye bye commute!), but a change like this can be challenging too and can have a big impact on our mental health.

It can cause stress, a lack of motivation, anxiety and uncertainty. Alongside this, we might worry about future job prospects or the best way to juggle work with our personal and family life.

These simple tips can help you feel more productive, motivated and take care of your mental health while working from home.

Choosing a mental health service

Your GP will assess your circumstances and offer appropriate advice or treatment.

They can also refer you to a psychological therapy service or a specialist mental health service for further advice or treatment.

These services may be provided by your GP surgery, a large local health centre, a specialist mental health clinic or a hospital.

The treatment may be provided on a one-to-one basis or in a group with others with similar difficulties. Therapy can also sometimes involve partners and families.

You have the legal right to choose which provider and clinical team you're referred to by your GP for your first outpatient appointment.

In most cases, you have a right to choose which mental health service provider you go to in England.

You do not have a legal right to choice when:

you need urgent or emergency treatment

you already receive care and treatment for the condition you're being referred for

the organisation or clinical team does not provide clinically appropriate care for your condition

you're a prisoner, on temporary release from prison or detained in other prescribed accommodation, such as a court, secure children's home, secure training centre, immigration removal centre or young offender institution

you're detained in a secure hospital setting

you're a serving member of the armed forces

you're detained under the Mental Health Act 1983

GOV.UK has more information about the NHS Choice Framework, your legal right to choice.

How the NHS website can help you choose

You can compare mental health service providers using the services near you search tool. Simply enter the name of the mental health service or the service provider and your postcode.

Or you can use one of these directories:

See mental health services for more information about the different services and teams available.

Once you have chosen a service provider, you also have the right to choose the mental health service team that will be in charge of your treatment.

You'll be seen by the consultant or named professional who leads the mental health team, or another healthcare professional on the team.

Updated 17th March 2020 - Coronavirus The main message at this stage is that we are looking at ways to continue to provide support, although we will have to do this differently in the coming weeks.
The latest government advice is for adults to avoid unnecessary crowds, and for young people with possible symptoms to stay at home. Understandably, for some young people this is a worrying time. We know that isolation is a major factor in emotional wellbeing, so we are considering alternative ways to provide support. https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/coronavirus-and-your-wellbeing/
Infectious disease outbreaks, like the current Coronavirus (Covid 19), can be scary and can affect our emotional wellbeing. The scenario with coronavirus is rapidly changing so we have set up this page to keep everyone updated on Time Out's response. Please keep an eye on this page and our Facebook page for latest developments.
Schools Activity, Courses & Workshops
Project Workers who facilitate groups will be contacting schools to discuss alternative arrangements.
We will not be able to visit schools for the foreseeable future and any activity planned will be postponed until the government advice changes.
We are trying to have a range of options including sending out resources to teachers, and we are happy to talk to schools individually to come up with the best course of action. You can have a discussion with workers about the best ways to keep in touch and support any young people who might be feeling anxious at this time.

There have also been some changes to general Healthy Minds services and more information can be found here

There is a lot of understandable anxiety about this and we encourage you to obtain information from official sources:

Help Calderdale to review adult psychological services
Calderdale Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is reviewing the adult psychological services it commissions (buys). Psychological services include talking therapies, such as counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and specialist assessments and treatments. The CCG commissions these services from South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (SWYPFT) and Insight Healthcare and makes a contribution to services provided by WomenCentre. The CCG knows that it can do better; sometimes people have to wait too long for psychological services and not everybody gets the right service that they need. This needs to change and the CCG will work with you and its partners to make things better. The CCG wants people to give their views about its psychological services. It wants, in particular, to hear from people who use or who have used psychological services in Calderdale. To find out more and to take part in the review, please click here. Opening hours:
