This event is in the past

Are you passionate about the role of peer support in early intervention mental health and wellbeing support?

This webinar will focus on peer–led support as an early intervention approach to helping people stay mentally well.

We'll be talking about where peer support sits in the wider strategic approach to mental health and wellbeing support and what these types of services look like in practice.

We’ll be hearing from Wendy Callander, Executive Director at Wellbeing Works in Dundee and sharing examples of approaches that are supporting people in their communities. Approaches that are providing alternatives to an over-whelmed, medical focused mental health system.
