Our Schools Program

Our schools program is developed to assist pupils, teachers and parents alike.

We can offer workshops, bespoke training and accredited training  

Why is it important;

One in ten young people experience a mental health issue at any one time. Suicide is the leading cause of death for those aged 5-19.

​

In an average group of 30 15-year-olds:

• Seven are likely to have been bullied

• Six may be self-harming

• One could have experienced the death of a parent

Record levels of young people are struggling. Academic pressure, social media, bullying, poverty, lack of availability of professional mental health support – all have been named by various sources as contributing to this epidemic of poor mental health in our young people.

It’s clear that young people are not getting the support they need. Key figures in a young person’s life – parents, family members, teachers, tutors, carers, youth workers – can often spot when a young person is struggling but may not know how best to help.
