Event information
If news reports of rising temperatures, melting ice caps, or forest fires fill you with dread and anxiety, you aren’t alone. You might be experiencing ‘climate anxiety’, and while it is a relatively new term, it’s on the rise and particularly affects young people.
We are bringing together a panel of speakers to unpick the facts, the stats, offer advice and inspirational stories on how to identify, manage, discuss and leverage the associate feelings of fear, hopelessness, , disempowerment, anger, frustration ... and the rest.
This is an evening for all, from the young generation that are statistically most affected by eco-anxiety, to parents and carers looking to understand and support, to mental health and education professionals ... and everyone in between.
THE PANEL ...
Listen to three talks and join in the Q&A afterwards, from a panel of professional perspectives, including:
SUE HEAP - Integrative Psychologist & Supervisor and climate activist
AMY MEEK - co-founder of the plastic waste youth-led campaign and now global charity, Kids Against Plastics, which she set up with her sister Ella Meek when they were just 10 and 12 years old.
ARE YOU AN ECO-WORRIER ...?
With the help of psychotherapist Sue Heap, we have put together an ECO-WORRIERS questionnaire, which we invite you to fill in in advance (https://tinyurl.com/yxukf3jf). It's anonymous, suitable for all ages, takes no more than 5 minutes and will inform the evening.
THE FACTS ... (Office of National Statistics survey, 2022)
3/4 of UK adults admit to eco-anxiety
2/3 of secondary school children report associated mental health problems
4/5 primary school children worry about the effects of climate change
... It’s time to talk ...
