Lawscot Wellbeing is a dedicated online resource that provides help and guidance for members and employers. We work in collaboration with LawCare, SeeMe and other mental health charities to:
- provide information to help people manage emotional wellbeing, and access or signpost support
- promote good workplace practices, influencing employers to support their staff and create working environments in the law that protect mental health (NEW - download our Guide to creating a Wellbeing Strategy)
- guide members who are concerned about their client’s emotional wellbeing
