Wellbeing

Practical advice on supporting people's wellbeing remotely and in-person.

Wellbeing methods

We spoke to a number of organisations working in the sector, each running different types of wellbeing activities with people seeking asylum and refugees. We compiled their experiences into an overview of each method.

Additional wellbeing resources are available in our Resource Library; simply click on the blue Wellbeing tag to filter the resources.

Virtual Therapy Support

Therapeutic support delivered remotely. A good option to support people who live far away or prefer virtual or telephone based support.

Virtual Learning Support

Virtual learning support includes important learning and development opportunities such as ESOL classes.

Virtual Social Activities

Virtual social activities are a good option to increase engagement with people who live far away or are self-isolating.

Social Activity Groups

Mostly held in-person, activity groups should be held in-line with Covid-19 social distancing guidance.

Welfare Calls

Welfare calls are a good way to check in with people who may not have internet access or other ways of connecting with people and services.

Bewell

BeWell exists to improve the wellbeing of people working in the migration sector. The wellbeing toolkit was created and piloted, wellbeing providers were researched (see resource library) and stories were collected around organisational implementation of wellbeing.
