Exercise Professionals for Mental Health shared practice day

We are delighted to invite you to the Exercise Professionals for Mental Health shared practice day. This is a free event to attend thanks to support from Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Trust. At this time we would like you to sign up as an expression of interest due to limited numbers and we will ensure spaces are allocated to all services.

A full agenda of the day will be confirmed and sent out shortly but the aims of the day will be;

• To update you on the Exercise Professionals for Mental health network and projects being carried out and working towards.
• To share examples of best practice through workshop and discussion-based sessions, poster presentations and networking opportunities.
• To continue establishing standards and guidelines for physical activity and exercise provision within mental health care settings to ensure safe effective practice throughout the country.
• To promote and raise the profile of the importance of physical activity and exercise in mental health care to the wider population

If you would like to contribute to the day, we would welcome teams to submit poster presentation and/or an application to run a workshop/discussion group around their roles from examples of best practice to research projects you have carried out. This could be theoretical or practical but would like these sessions to be collaborative and interactive.

If you would like more information or want to submit a poster or workshop discussion please contact:
