This is a 2 hours online workshop, developed as a whole house approach to support organisations and teams deal with the additional pressures of the Covid impacts.
Primarily for organisations providing services where there has been an expediential increase in pressure and change.
The workshop provides a supported session in evaluating and sharing individuals’ experiences over the last year. This provides a space to reflect, share and discuss in a safe supported environment. Sessions are delivered in a secure online platform.
The sessions give an individual an opportunity for reflection on the impacts (both physically and emotionally) of their year and opportunity to draw a line and move forward with an improved approach to resilience and wellbeing.
Workshops need a minimum of 6 staff and a maximum of 10. Sessions last between 90 and 120 mins depending on the number of staff participating.
