DESCRIPTION:\n	Human rights are central to proper mental health care and
	 treatment. Legally\, people working in public service\, “public officia
	ls” (such as NHS staff\, local authority staff and the police)\, have to
	 protect\, respect and fulfil your human rights in all of their decisions
	 and actions. This duty to uphold human rights has not changed during the 
	COVID-19 pandemic. This duty to protect human rights is as important as ev
	er\, as services are facing increased stress due to the pandemic.\n\n\n\n	
	COVID-19 has meant that many of the support networks that we all used to u
	se no longer exist in the same way. Added to this some of the changes to 
	mental health law affect the safeguards put in place for people who are r
	eceiving mental health care and treatment. For example\, changes to the wa
	y mental health tribunals are being held in Wales and England.  Howeve
	r\, any changes that are made to existing laws\, even if temporary still n
	eed to be compatible with our human rights law. The emergency laws for the
	 COVID-19 period to not provide and opt-out of human rights laws. This mea
	ns that it is more important than ever that both staff and people accessin
	g mental health services know about human rights and the legal duties of p
	ublic officials to protect\, respect and fulfil them.\n\n\n\n	It is impor
	tant for all of use to know that our human rights must still be respected\
	, protected and fulfilled during all of our interactions with public servi
	ces. This webinar\, led by Professor Tim Kendall is designed to provide po
	licy makers and the wider health community with the latest evidence on the
	 impact of COVID-19 on mental health and how to address it.\n\n\n\n	Regist
