Physical Health

Looking after your physical well-being, is intrinsically linked to many of the other life-style issues covered within the Hub – but on this page we’ll offer some ideas and signposting that may help you with looking after your body from the perspective of health and fitness.

Making sure that you keep an eye on your diet, and try to incorporate some physical activities into your day – as well as allowing yourself some “breathing space” to relax and reflect – will help you feel physically ready for life’s demands.

News & Events

Having an effective and vibrant partnership depends on everyone taking part – it’s about communication, about sharing, and about YOU! We’re really keen to get as many people as possible involved in our work, to share what they’ve learned, what they’re doing, and what they think

So, here’s your chance to tell us about:

a new piece of research you’ve discovered
a new project that you’re working on
some new training that you’ve undertaken
a conference you’ve heard about, or attended
anything else that your social work colleagues, or students, might be interested in.
Simply drop an email to cath.williams@nottingham.ac.uk, including “T.P.” in your email title.
