Hi ,
Summer is definitely here. I hope you are getting a break of some kind and enjoying some nice weather*. Maybe you have been watching the tennis at Wimbledon? Certainly there is plenty of research evidence that playing tennis is good for your mental health maybe just watching those long back and forth rallies is good for our wellbeing too! We round up the latest professional news and let you have details of our CPD events over the summer. And don't forget to sort out your clinical will by 1 Sep if you are registered with the BABCP. We will be looking at that in more depth next time. We will also be announcing our brand new CatchUp service where you can watch the workshops you might have missed.
Now, where's my Panama hat?
*Happy Winter to our Australian and NZ subscribers. You are not forgotten.
