ISWAN Video on mental health for seafarers during Covid-19

The International Seafarers' Welfare and Assistance Network (ISWAN) has launched a new video aimed at seafarers. It provides information and guidance from a counselling psychologist, Dr Kate Thompson, about managing your mental health during this Covid 19 crisis.

Please see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rB_Nyk0LRSo&feature=youtu.be for the link to the video on You Tube.

It can also be found on ISWAN's facebook pages, twitter feed, and linkedin.

Seafarers can also access ISWAN's mental health self-help guides and information on Covid 19 at https://www.seafarerhelp.org/en/health-well-being/seafarers-health-resources

ISWAN is fully operational with staff working from home. SeafarerHelp is available 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

The Chamber commends this video and the work ISWAN is doing on this issue and encourages members to ensure that their crews can see it, whether they’re onboard or at home on leave.
