Our Programmes
Mental Health Provision
We design and deliver mental health programmes for young people in schools and community settings, with a focus on early intervention, prevention and emotional wellbeing. Our work is rooted in trauma-informed and culturally responsive practice, recognising the diverse realities young people face.
Support does not stop with young people. We equip the adults around them, including teachers, parents and carers, with the knowledge and tools they need to create safe and supportive environments.
Our early intervention counselling takes place within schools and organisations, delivered by trained practitioners. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioural strategies, we help young people build resilience and improve their mental health.
Alongside our delivery work, we campaign for change. We advocate for a mental health system that starts earlier, listens better and reflects the communities it serves.
Mental Health Support for Schools
Our main programmes
Mental Health Resilience & Prevention
Our flagship programme delivered to thousands of children across the country!
In this workshop we will explore mental health and the notion that we can all look after it!
Younger students will be introduced to anxiety and depression and those who are older will receive an in-depth look at these plus eating disorders and OCD.
Other mental illnesses may also be lightly introduced but the focus will be on the four previously mentioned. We will also discuss individual coping mechanisms, wellbeing and how to support those around you.

Mental Health Support For Communities
We work in the community delivering mental health programmes for places such as community centres, hospitals, religious organisations and businesses
Stress, Body Image and Self Esteem
This workshop discusses with students the unrealistic expectations portrayed in the media of the ‘perfect body image and the negative consequences of this on people’s mental health.
Students will learn about specific mental illnesses that can arise from believing they have to look a certain way to have worth, ways to build their confidence and self-esteem and how to feel comfortable with their appearance.

Coping mechanisms and ways to promote positive wellbeing will also be discussed to provide practical ways to create and maintain a supportive, happy environment for all.
