Mental Health Awareness

As part of the December Staff Development week we are running Mental Health Awareness Workshops. These sessions are essential workshops for new Als as the Mental Health Advisors will :

provide a brief overview of student mental health, including some recognisable signs/symptoms that may indicate a mental health issue.
discuss how to support students with mental health issues or students in distress; including information on the services available to UAL students; and how and when to refer.
explore role related responsibilities in working with students with mental health issues. We will use activities and discussion to explore managing professional boundaries and confidentiality.

We still have places on the workshop running on Thursday 16th December at 1.30. Please encourage Als to attend – payment will be covered by their schools.They can book onto this session by following the link;
