  4. Mental Health Awareness Week 2020: Our free week-long programme of events
6th May 2020 | Wellbeing

This year during Mental Health Awareness week we're running a free, daily programme of events in collaboration with Clio.

Mental health affects us all. Some tools and conversations are universal, so some of the events are relevant to everyone. Others are designed to be more specific to legal professionals at different stages. From students to managing partners, there will be an event targeted to you.

Explore each event for an outline of the session. Each event will have capped attendance, so book early to secure your place.

Monday 18 May: Wellbeing and positive mental health: Does being a lawyer help?

Join this free online webinar to hear a panel of three speakers discuss whether lawyers are more susceptible to mental health problems.

Tuesday 19 May: Wellbeing at work in changing times - the business case

As you and your organisation adjust to new ways of working, join our speakers to learn more about wellbeing and resilience during a crisis, as well as the business case for prioritising wellbeing.

Wednesday 20 May: Introduction to mindfulness workshop

Join Clio to learn from mental health expert Gary Young, Founder of The Mindful Enterprise, about the immediate actions you can take to increase performance potential by improving mental health and well-being. Please note this event is being run by Clio and supported by Law Society of Scotland. Clicking the link will take you to the Clio website.

Thursday 21 May: Devising a mental health strategy for after coronavirus

Designed for managers and leaders, join one of three practical workshops for in-house, high street or big firm employers, to look at how to design a mental health strategy for a post-coronavirus workplace.

Friday 22 May: Being resilient in a tough job market: why mindset matters more than ever

This session will look at how a positive mindset and resilience can be essential tools for a competitive job market. Targeted at new lawyers, this session will feature a panel who will share their own personal experience and advice following qualifying during the 2008 crash.
