- **Event Name**: From Evidence to Action: Climate Change, Flooding and Mental Health
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 02 Jun, 2026 at 09:30 am – Tue, 02 Jun, 2026 at 04:30 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Explore how climate impacts mental health and wellbeing, implications for Scottish policy, and practical tools like the Household Flood PlanAbout this EventThere is increasing international evidence that the impacts of climate change, including flooding, can significantly influence population mental health and wellbeing. These risks are not evenly distributed, with some population groups disproportionately affected by poorer outcomes.Events like flooding will only become more frequent and severe in the decades ahead, and evidence shows that levels of household preparedness across Scotland are very low. Yet, translating this evidence into effective, preventative policy and practice – as well as capacity building in community and mental health services – remains a key challenge.Aims of the eventThis event will guide key stakeholders from the climate, public health, mental health and third sectors through recent evidence about how climate impacts affect mental health and wellbeing, the pathways to poorer outcomes, who is most at risk, and which preventative and early interventions are most effective. The following evidence will feature: (ClimateXChange, 2025)(UK Health Security Agency, 2025)Reducing the mental health and wellbeing impacts of flooding: Informing cross-policy action in Scotland (Centre of Expertise for Waters (CREW), due to be published May 2026))Following this, we will be launching a new household flood plan template which aims to support households across Scotland better prepare for flooding. The project team will showcase how behavioural evidence and co-creation principles were used to inform its design, translating evidence into action, and what future steps could increase uptake.Household flood plans in Scotland – applying behavioural learnings to inform best practice and uptake (CREW report due to publish in May 2026)FormatThe format is likely to be a plenary session presenting the findings of each of the reports, followed by a series of interactive discussions to enable participants to focus on particular areas of interest.Full agenda details will be confirmed soon.The event will:support stakeholders in prioritising policy and delivery to reduce the risk of poor mental health outcomes across the full spectrum from climate adaptation to recoverypresent behavioural insights and evidence to support those engaging householders with their flood risk, including launching a plan with simple actions householders can take to build their resilience to floodingshowcase the power of co-creation through demonstrating evidence-informed resource developmentprovide an opportunity to discuss emerging recommendations, and explore opportunities for action and collaborationhelp identify key evidence gaps and priorities for future researchWhy this event mattersA public mental health approach highlights the importance of prevention. This can be achieved through:addressing the social, economic and environmental factors that increase the risk of poor climate-related mental health outcomesdelivering preparedness in a way that considers mental health and wellbeingproviding early interventions following climate impacts such as floodingThe event also showcases the power of behavioural evidence and co‑creation in developing evidence-informed resources that address the real and enduring challenges climate change poses. The resulting Scottish household flood plan is a low-cost, practical resource that will support households in strengthening their preparedness for flooding.Attendee informationThis is an invite-only event.
