Learn how to create more inclusive environments for people experiencing mental health challenges.
Reasonable adjustments are ways in which we can change our working environment or arrangements to make sure what we do is as accessible and inclusive as possible. From members of staff and volunteers to service users, these changes should remove disadvantages at all levels.
But how do we get started, and what can we do to ensure we’re making our services truly accessible?
Join us for this practical session where we’ll explore how to create more inclusive environments for people experiencing mental health challenges within frontline and community settings.
Together, we will consider how mental health can impact the way people access services, engage with support and participate in community activities. The session will explore common barriers people may experience, challenge common assumptions, and share practical approaches for creating psychologically safer, more inclusive interactions that recognise individual needs while maintaining appropriate boundaries.
