A big thank you to the brilliant Dr John McGrath for today's livestream and for helping us think through how we can look after our #mentalhealth in #pandemic times! Helpful resources - not just for #workingparents at good-thinking.co.uk
Lockdown isn't how anyone would have liked to start 2021. Concerns over the impact of the #pandemic on #mentalhealth are rising. We're looking forward to tomorrow's livestream with Dr John Macgrath on Working parent mental health: how to look after yourself in pandemic times.

This week's school closures announcement has left working parents with the impossible job of juggling professional responsibilities and homeschooling, again. How organisations respond at this point can make all the difference. peoplemanagement.co.uk/news/…
Renewed school closures have come as a blow to working parents in the UK. At Parent Scheme we're gathering data to help employers identify the support that would really make a difference.
If you're a parent, we'd love your input in this 8 question survey! feedback.parentscheme.com/ja…
Although the new lockdown comes as a blow to everyone, working parents will particularly be scrambling this morning. Find support for your teams now at Parentscheme.app - our platform contains extensive resources to help working parents...
In response to the new lockdown, we’re also offering evening small group coaching and one-off access to our January livestream on working parent mental health. Please contact us at [email protected] if you’re interested in making this available to your people.
It’s OK not to be OK this morning. Sign up for a preview account at Parentscheme.app for access to our resources, including of a set of premium livestreams we’ve run in the past on Mental Health and Wellbeing, Supporting Children with Change and Loving Teens.
If there's one thing that goes hand in hand with working parenthood, it's guilt. We're excited about this year's last livestream on 'Managing working parent guilt: understand how guilt works and how to keep it in check' this afternoon with Parent Scheme expert Dr. Penny Utton.
While we were sad to read this, we're encouraged to be working with a growing number of organisations that are serious about creating an authentic culture of support for working parents.

Thanks @LGIM for working with us to support parents in having great conversations about race with their families. #Diversity #Inclusion #DiversityAndInclusion #Equality
