Important time reflecting on the last year & setting objectives for the year ahead.

Ableist assumptions can become reality by creating barriers for disabled people.

It's time to change perspective 👓

📹 'Assume I can. So maybe I will.'

Being present: Take it one step at a time. Focus on the now

It can feel overwhelming with the constant burden of things to juggle

Pace yourself & ask “What do I need to do right now?”

'I am proud to be a part of LSCft because I have been given the opportunity to train on delivering mindfulness to colleagues for their wellbeing.' Charlotte, Lead Occupational Therapist working in Children and Young People's service 💙
