The mental component of athletic success is often cited as the most important, yet it is frequently the least understood. The British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) invites you to a one-day seminar at the Hilton Leeds City that delves deep into the "Top Two Inches" of performance. This seminar is a must-attend for anyone working in the supporting cast of an athlete, from coaches to full-time sport psychologists. The 2026 program is built around the theme of "Holistic Excellence." We move beyond simple visualization techniques to explore the complex intersection of high-performance pressure and long-term mental health. The morning sessions will be led by Chartered Sport Psychologists who have worked at the highest levels of professional golf and tennis, sharing their strategies for maintaining focus during "clutch" moments. A significant portion of the day is dedicated to the "Athlete-Centered Approach." This involves understanding the psychological impact of long-term injury and the transition out of professional sport—a critical area of modern sport science. Attendees will participate in interactive "fishbowl" discussions where they can observe and critique consultation styles in a safe, professional environment. This seminar also addresses the growing need for behavioral change strategies in the general population. How do we apply sport psychology principles to help sedentary individuals adopt a more active lifestyle? This crossover between performance and public health makes the event relevant for those working in NHS settings or community sports programs. Situated in the heart of Leeds, the venue offers a professional and comfortable setting for a day of intensive learning and networking. Join us to refine your approach to the mental side of the game.

The "Section 12 Induction" is a cornerstone of the Andrew Sims Centre’s educational calendar, providing the foundational training required for doctors seeking their first approval under the Mental Health Act. This two-day course is essential for psychiatrists and other eligible medical practitioners who wish to gain the authority to provide medical recommendations for the detention of patients. The curriculum is designed to be comprehensive and immersive. Day one focuses on the legal framework, defining the specific criteria for Sections 2, 3, and 4 of the Act. Day two moves into the practicalities of the role, including the nuances of the "nearest relative," the importance of the AMHP (Approved Mental Health Professional) partnership, and the human rights implications of depriving someone of their liberty. Through a series of lectures, mock assessments, and small-group discussions, participants will learn how to navigate the complex social and legal landscape of mental health crises. Attending both days is a strict requirement for receiving the certificate of completion, which is recognized by all four approval panels in England. This course provides 12 CPD points and remains one of the most respected inductions in the UK.

Ensuring that mental health professionals remain current with the shifting landscape of legislation is the primary goal of the "Section 12 Refresher Course." This intensive one-day session is specifically designed for doctors who are already Section 12 approved and need to renew their status. Under the Andrew Sims Centre’s expert guidance, participants will review the latest legal updates, recent case law, and changes to the Mental Health Act Code of Practice that have occurred since their last induction or refresher. The course moves beyond mere theory, focusing on the practical application of Section 12 powers in crisis situations. Special attention is given to the quality of medical recommendations and the importance of clear, legally defensible documentation. Facilitators will lead discussions on the interface between the Mental Health Act and the Mental Capacity Act, as well as the nuances of assessing patients from diverse cultural backgrounds. As one of the premier providers of Mental Health Law training in the UK, the Andrew Sims Centre ensures that this refresher is both academically rigorous and clinically relevant, providing doctors with the 6 CPD points necessary for their re-approval application.
