At a time of constant change and uncertainty, parents, carers, and children are at risk of suffering emotional and mental health challenges. When we speak of mental health, we want to think about being mentally healthy, not just being free from mental illness. Mental health refers to the health of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It is important to recognise this with our children, and that they can recognise this themselves. This three-week online course covers practical strategies, tips, activities and ideas to support your child during this unsettling time.
