Nigel Latta: Dealing with stress and anxiety in times of uncertainty
2020 has been a stressful year for many of us. That's why on 10th November at Westlake Boys High School, Nigel Latta is hosting a talk on how to deal with stress and anxiety in times of uncertainty. Not only does this promise to be a fantastic, helpful and entertaining evening, the talk is in support of us, Kenzie's Gift - a local Devonport charity set up to support the mental health of young kiwis and families facing grief or serious illness.
Whether you’re a parent with young children or teenagers, or just trying to deal with the unprecedented uncertainty of the times we all find ourselves living in, we could all probably do with some pointers on how to manage our wellbeing. In this entertaining evening, Nigel will explore how Covid-19 has impacted all of our lives, young and old, and share some strategies for managing and coping with stress and anxiety. This is an evening that will be appropriate for all ages.

Time: 7.30pm - 9.30pm
