LAST CHANCE TO BOOK ✨ Want to Know More About... refugee mental health in Leeds ✨ Wednesday 21 October 2026, 10:30am to 11:30am

Refugee mental health is a key issue for Leeds, and the workforce plays a vital role in supporting people who have experienced trauma, displacement, and uncertainty. This webinar will help you understand why refugee mental health matters, what challenges refugees face, and how your role can make a real difference. We’ll dispel common myths, showcase local services and resources, and share practical strategies for culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care. Most importantly, we’ll create a safe space for questions and discussion—so you leave feeling confident and equipped to connect people to the right support.

This session will cover:

✅ why refugee mental health is a priority for Leeds
✅ understanding your role in supporting refugee communities
✅ explore the importance of appropriate interpretation services
✅ common myths and the facts behind them
✅ local services and resources you can signpost to practical approaches for culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care

This online session will be delivered by Catherine Ward, Health Improvement Principal, Migrant and Inclusion Health (Public Health, Leeds City Council) and Kathryn Ashworth, Chief Executive Officer (Solace)

Introducing the Leeds Stop Va**ng Service
Supporting a ni****ne-free Leeds
The Leeds Stop Va**ng Service is now available through the Leeds Stop Smoking Service, providing dedicated support for people who want to stop using ni****ne products, including vapes, ni****ne pouches and ni****ne replacement therapies (NRT).
This free 6-week programme combines behavioural support with treatment options to help people successfully quit ni****ne and maintain long-term change.
While smoking rates continue to decline, ni****ne use remains a growing concern, particularly among people who have never smoked. The service has been developed to support anyone who is ready to become ni****ne-free and improve their health and wellbeing.

How you can help
As a member of the workforce, you can play an important role in:

Raising awareness of the service among the people you support.
Signposting and referring individuals who may be interested in quitting ni****ne.
Promoting the service within community settings, workplaces and local networks.
Displaying posters and sharing information with colleagues, service users and residents.

The service is available to Leeds residents aged 15 years and over who are currently using ni****ne products and are ready to quit.
