The Impact of Covid-19 on Mental Health: A Review of Recent Publications

Reports and publications released over the last 3 months have covered a range of topics relating to Covid-19 and its devastating impact on individuals and organisations both within and outside the sport sector.​

Presented here is a brief but important collection of quotes (gathered from relevant reports over the previous 3 months) pertaining specifically to the effects of Covid-19 on the mental health and wellbeing of different groups. The presentation was formed as summation and reflection of recent and relevant reports within and outside the sport sector.

Concluding remarks focus on the sport sector's planned and idealised response to the current circumstances and the steps we can take, as individuals and organisations, to ensure we are supporting and prioritising those who have experienced mental health challenges over the last 3 months.
