Let’s create a future where every young person has access to support if they need it
Navigating adolescence isn’t easy. Most young people master the challenges, but sadly increasing numbers are experiencing difficulties. Raising awareness of how common mental illness is, helps young people realise they are not alone.
This 90-minute workshop is run in collaboration with the Zeta Movement. Students hear from a Zeta Ambassador, a young person with lived experience of mental illness, about their personal story. We then consider steps that students can take to safeguard their mental health using the HealthFirst FEELS GOOD! approach.
Led by our team of doctors, nurses, and midwives with training in this field, these workshops navigate sensitive topics and conversations safely, highlighting where young people can turn for support.
This 90-minute workshop builds on the mental health awareness workshop.
It helps students consider how to support a friend who is struggling, recognising that it is often friends that young people turn to first. Using a framework to navigate conversations, we highlight the main role of being a friend helper is to connect their friend to a trusted person and/or professional help. Case studies and practise conversations bring the workshop alive.
