Saturday marked World Mental Health Day. Less than 24 hours later, the Mental Health Commission wrote to the Government, advising them to urgently implement a ‘National Mental Health Promotion and Support Plan’. The plan, outlined in the ‘Sharing the Vision’ document, aims to support individuals and at-risk groups who may be in need of intervention during the pandemic. More and more of us find ourselves struggling as a result of the pandemic, particularly as the situation seems to be worsening. But, what can we do to protect and preserve our mental wellbeing?

On Tuesday’s Morning Focus, Gavin Grace spoke to Rosie McMahon, a bodyworker and life coach based in Clare about the free resources she has set up online to help those struggling with Covid anxiety.
