Mental Heath

Welcome to the Mental health and Wellbeing section of our Academy website.

Mental health is not just the absence of mental disorder. It is defined as a state of well-being in which every individual realises his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community.

Here in this section, you can find handy tips about maintaining positive mental health and also wellbeing.

The Presentations at the bottom of this page are very useful in signposting external help from agencies that support not only mental health issues but also the wellbeing of young people.

It's is especially important that in the current climate of Coronavirus and lockdown that we all work together to look after one another and seek support should we need it.
