MENTAL HEALTH – EVERYONE’S ISSUE

Covid-19 brings direct and indirect mental health challenges – adding to those that already existed. Anxiety, isolation and bereavement combine with social & economic impacts to create the perfect storm.
Mental health stigmatisation is decreasing, but still exists; and at best, mental health is poorly understood.
What role can we play by connecting across society to up our mental-health game?

Together, can we meet the mental health challenges posed by Covid, to create better mental health (on average) for everyone – especially our most vulnerable?
Awareness & understanding can help us take care of ourselves and of others, while also helping eliminate stigma
In fact, the sense of empowerment, identity & purpose from working within WeCanCork is very likely to directly provide mental health benefits – an easy win!

What role can we play, as a connected & sciencedriven community, to support mental health in ourselves and others?
What specialist professional advices & programs can we promote, support & follow, in order to enhance mental wellbeing across our communities & city?
How can we help, as individuals and as a community? We need ideas, introductions, guidance in the community, please. See link below.

WeCanCork is funded by our Corporate Sponsors to empower their teams & communities to transform lives, society & the planet.
