About the event

Six months on from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic we are adapting to the world we find around us.

What implications does this have for our mental health, and the mental health of those we care for? How do mental health professionals, especially those working in creative arts and therapy, rise up to meet these challenges?

This online day conference will bring together global healthcare and mental health professionals from across the fields of medicine, neuropsychology, music therapy and arts in health to set out where we go from here and best practice now and in the future.
