We are a charity that fundamentally cares for people, and we collectively feel compelled to acknowledge what is happening across our world right now; the conflict and crisis that people are facing. The suffering that people are being subjected to can be distressing to witness. Trying to strike a balance between keeping informed about world events in the media and trying to avoid becoming overwhelmed can be challenging. It can leave us feeling emotionally drained and helpless, especially during times of extreme conflict and injustice.
Whether you’re feeling the pressures of the world’s conflicts or worrying about the economic uncertainties we are all facing, we can help you get support quickly. We can provide financial and mental health support, as well as help with housing issues and unemployment, through our partners.
ABS continues to explore how we can best support our community. This week we will be reaching out to our partners and membership bodies within the community to reinforce our message of support in these challenging times.
You can help us spread this message to anyone who you know in the architectural community who may be affected by what is happening, and let them know that ABS is here for them in times of need.
ABS helpline: 020 3918 8588 or email help@absnet.org.uk
If you are feeling overwhelmed there is support available to you. We partner with Anxiety UK to offer self-management techniques or therapeutic support.
