The coronavirus pandemic has not only threatened the physical health of millions but also begun to affect people’s emotional and mental wellbeing. Many people will be experiencing working from home for the first time; home schooling; maintaining social distancing and struggling to stay productive throughout the day.

Taking part in regular activities to stimulate your mind can help you stay productive throughout the day, this could be taking part in a fitness class, learning a new skill or reading a book.
