Children's Mental Health Week 

This year Children's Mental Health Week takes place from 3 February - 9 February.

It is all about helping young people speak up and feel empowered to talk about mental health. Each year the week has a theme, and this years is 'Know yourself, Grow yourself' and is all about encouraging you to build self awareness. "Know Yourself, Grow Yourself" is all about how we can build and grow our resilience by understanding ourselves and recognising our emotions.

By understanding who we are, we can find out what makes us feel happy, or sad, or anxious, or scared - or maybe all of them at once! The Inside Out 2 characters can help you understand how different emotions might make you feel.

Our Children's team attended a youth group to support children's mental health and developed a group positive flower. Children designed petals and added on what makes them feel happy, what they love and what they are good at.  Have a go at making your own flower!
