We are very aware that there is a great deal of uncertainty across various health and social care sectors at the moment, and that many of our members will be feeling anxious of what this uncertainty may bring. Anyone feeling concerned about this uncertainty may want to explore CILIP’s Resilience Hub.
The Resilience Hub is a dedicated online platform that offers an array of resources curated to support librarians navigating periods of organisational and personal change. If you are seeking strategies to address workplace challenges, tips for maintaining mental health and wellbeing, or opportunities for professional development and building a network, the Resilience Hub serves as a comprehensive source of support – many of the resources are linked to the PKSB, with dedicated sections for leaders and managers.
Should you be struggling with the rising cost of living or face severe financial hardship, the CILIP Benevolent Fund can award funding up to a maximum of £3,000. The fund can also help with any unusual or unexpected expenses that may be causing anxiety and hardship.
