WEBINARS: FINANCIAL, PARENTING and HEALTH & WELLBEING
Our financial webinars are delivered by Better With Money, specialists in this area, and we are working in partnership with the ICE Benevolent Fund to bring you these. Regularly reviewing personal finances can be very beneficial to both financial and mental wellbeing.
Our health and wellbeing webinars are delivered by SuperWellness who are a leading provider of nutrition-centred wellbeing services in the UK. Our parenting webinars are delivered by the Positive Parenting Project, a social enterprise which aims to bring the benefits of proven evidence-based parenting strategies to as many parents (and children) as possible
The webinars are available to members and their family - you can attend as many as you would like to. (A recording of the webinar is sent to all those who register to attend, so that you can still watch the content if you cannot join the live event, or would prefer to watch it later.)

Dementia is a huge and growing health crisis – and it should be on everyone’s mind. But it’s also a subject that many people don’t want to think or talk about. For many, it’s simply too frightening or misunderstood, and this stigma can surround dementia in silence. We know the reality of living with dementia can be difficult – therefore enabling people to continue to live well with dementia is important. In this webinar, Pam Kehoe the lead Admiral Nurse with the Dementia at Work team at Dementia UK, will explain about Admiral Nurses and give a brief overview of the experience of dementia for both the person who has been diagnosed and their families, with a focus on the impact that dementia may have.
