Supporting Wellbeing
In this unprecedented time, we are going to experience a range of emotions, sometimes confusion, numbness or even no clearly identifiable feelings. This is all normal.
The NHS are offering free webinars regarding mental health and wellbeing that are free for anyone to access. These can be found HERE.
London Borough of Hounslow have put together some ideas for young people, families and staff, to support them during the pandemic:
LBH - Emotional wellbeing tips for children and families
LBH - Emotional wellbeing tips for staff
LBH - Helpful services for families
LBH - Helpful services for young people
For pupils with ASD, food can be a difficult issue. This booklet provides suggestions for parents and carers to support their children during this time.
