For this Mental Health Awareness Week 2023 (MHAW), we’ll be sharing resources everyday that PGRs can use, whether at YSJ or externally, to help them manage feelings of Anxiety and to support their mental wellbeing. As a PGR, it’s so easy to feel lonely and worried about the future, but we hope that we can help to ease some of those feelings by showing you that you’re not alone.
