Show Notes

Welcome to the Somerset Emotional Wellbeing (SEW) podcast!

In this episode, Reflections on COVID, our hosts Dr. Peter Bagshaw and Dr. Andrew Tresidder are joined by psychologists Dr. Lorna Stewart and Dr. Rosemary Novak from Somerset NHS Foundation Trust to reflect on the pandemic.

During the conversation, they discuss how the last year and half has affected us all as a society and as individuals, what it has been like working in the NHS during the pandemic and what the long-term effects of COVID on our mental health and wellbeing could be.

The SEW podcast is a free weekly show hosted by Dr. Andrew Tresidder and Dr. Peter Bagshaw. In each episode, the doctors discuss a different topic related to mental and emotional wellbeing and often invite expert guests to join them in conversation. The show is aimed at the people of Somerset and beyond; the advice and guidance provided should apply to anybody who needs it, whenever they need it.

All episodes of SEW are now available to listen to free through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, Google Podcasts, Amazon Podcasts, Somerset Emotional Wellbeing or wherever you get your podcasts!
