MindEd is a free educational resource on children,
young people, adults and older people's mental health.

For Professionals and Volunteers
This is for you if you volunteer, work or are studying to work with infants, children, teenagers or adults. MindEd has e-learning applicable across the health, social care, education, criminal justice and community settings. It is aimed at anyone from beginner through to specialist.

The MindEd Coronavirus Staff Resilience Hub provides support for frontline staff working through the Covid-19 pandemic to help manage their mental health and wellbeing. It has been created alongside NHS Health Education England and in partnership with NHS England-Improvement, supported by Skills for Care. The Blue Lights Top Tips, on wellbeing and resilience building, are for all Blue Light service staff and organisations.

For Education: Wellbeing for Education Return
The Wellbeing for Education Return programme is a joint initiative from the Department for Education, Department of Health and Social Care, Health Education England, NHS England and Public Health England. The programme supports staff working in schools and colleges to respond to the additional pressures some young people may be feeling as a direct result of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as to any emotional response they or their teachers may be experiencing.

Content for this programme has been developed by MindEd with input from mental health and education experts. This can be found within MindEd Education.
