Early Career Researchers from across Wales will present their research on wellbeing with diverse populations. From trauma-informed culture in the Youth Justice Service, the investigation of wellbeing predictors of sexual minority UK adolescents, to mindfulness-based interventions used for health promotion. The webinar will also explore the role of physical health, physical activity and the importance of body-based strategies to manage mental health.
