Presentation time: Tuesday, 8 June, 2021 - 12:00

Discover the support available for anyone in the OU community with caring responsibilities of any kind. Talk to others who balance caring with their OU work and learn helpful strategies.

Whether you are an OU student or a member of staff, we care about the caring work you are doing. This online event will fill you in on the support that is available from the OU and you will hear from people who have balanced caring responsibilities with their OU work. We know that it is important for carers to talk to others who understand some of the challenges and so there will be an opportunity to share experiences in small groups. We will also suggest mindfulness and meditation strategies that you can enjoy during the event and take away. Many people care for others, and often do so in an unofficial capacity, so if you are caring for anyone else this is the event for you.

Please note that this workshop is scheduled to start at 12:00pm and will last 120 minutes. You will need to book a free ticket to attend this Adobe Connect Online Room event, tickets will become available about 2-3 weeks in advance of the workshop. After the event, you can watch the recording here (click on 'view previous recordings' button). The group work and plenary are not recorded. The slides for the event will also be available.
