Preparing & Supporting Young People Going to University – An Online Webinar
Thursday 16th January, 19.00-20.30
This webinar has been collaboratively produced by Mind in Mid Herts, DrugLink and Carers in Herts. It will explore the wider context of the challenges faced by young people as they leave home and start further education.
During this time we know that many struggle with their mental health and this session will look at understanding risk-taking behaviours, including experimentation with substances and gambling, and provide guidance on how to address concerns when these behaviours escalate.
Parent and Carer attendees will look at how to prepare beforehand, how to notice when something may be going wrong and will explore some practical strategies to support from afar. Further signposting support will be given and there will be opportunities for further discussion.
Following the session you will receive a toolkit and resource pack which will include practical tips and helpful signposting to additional resources and services.
The webinar has been co-developed with contributions from experts with lived experience from each organisation to ensure the content is accurate and relevant.
