UK Coaching, in proud partnership with Mind and Sport England, has realeased a newly updated Mental Health Awareness for Sport and Physical Activity+ online course.

Developed for everyone involved in clubs, community sport, and physical activity – from coaches and activators to administrators and volunteers – this course offers a richer learning experience to ensure that you're more informed than ever.

Here's what's new:

  • Young People: featuring statistics and video content highlighting young people's experiences, along with guidance for those involved in promoting physical activity
  • Healthy relationships with physical activity: incorporating personal accounts of the importance of a healthy relationship with physical activity, guidance on identifying signs of unhealthy relationships, and ways to provide support when needed.
  • Helping others to support themselves: including Mind's new Self-care library, which compiles various activities aimed at helping individuals support their own and others' wellbeing.

Every coaching moment is an opportunity to make a genuine positive difference. Are you equipped with the knowledge to truly understand and support?
