This week we are continuing the conversation around some of the issues that came up and din't come up at COP26. My guest is Dr. Katherine Kennet, a child and adolescent psychiatrist and is who is also the social prescribing lead at the Royal College of Psychiatrists

Her and I talk about the psychological traumas associated with climate disasters and what we can expect in the future. We also chatted about what the UK is doing to pay attention to mental well-being, including social prescribing. To learn more about the position the Royal College of Psychiatrists is taking with respect to responding to climate change you can read more about that here.
