COVID-19
2020 has been a huge challenge for individuals and businesses alike.
As we collectively navigate this time, whether in lockdown, working from home or losing work, there are many resources being made available to support and encourage us through this time.
The list provided here by various organisations and geographical locations are an opportunity to re-skill, look for work or stay centred during this time.
In addition, taking care of ourselves is critical and a baseline for this self care can be to start with your mental health. A number of organisations have added specific COVID-19 related services and some are listed here.
If you have any other recommended resources please let me know!
