The PCAM/PRS Seminar on wellbeing and mental health in the media music industry, “Staying Balanced & Grounded in the Game”, which was to have been held on the evening of 7 March at The Arena @ PRS, has been postponed until later in the spring.

New dates being considered for the event, a PRS for Music collaboration with PCAM and the PRS Members’ Fund, are Thursday 25 April, Thursday 2 May, and Thursday 9 May.  A new date and details will be announced soon.

When the event is held, PCAM members who attend can look forward to an evening of inspiring talks and discussions featuring people from PCAM, the PRS Members Fund, PRS for Music, and leading industry experts.  The evening will focus on wellbeing and mental health in a media music industry that offers immense creative rewards, yet also exacts a psychological toll through the pressure of tight budgets, inconsistent workflows,  financial anxiety, technological disruption, long isolated hours and the concentrated influence of major ad agencies, which can intimidate composers.

Speakers will highlight a toolbox of practices to help you withstand the psychological strains, connect with a compassionate community, and renew appreciation for the many positive dimensions of your craft.

Watch the PCAM website and social media for announcement of a new date for this important event.
