Wellbeing resources for COVID times
Special thanks to Zoe who has collated wellbeing resources available nationally and local to us here in the North East – please take a look and share where they may be able to help. They include a full range of support services as well as pointers to apps and loads of other fantastic resources, to help you and your colleagues maintain psychological, emotional, physical and financial health.
Thanks too, to local Crossfit coach Paul Warrior for designing a ‘2 week isolation’ workout programme, which can be found here – VICTORY.
