A mind of their own
Building your child's emotional wellbeing parenting course
Tuesday 24 June, 7.30pm, St Mary's
In the media we are hearing that young people are facing unprecedented levels of pressure, from school, from their phones and from their peers. All of which can have a negative impact on their mental health.
Based on the book by Katharine Hill, A Mind of Their Own is a one session video-led course which will give parents, carers, and anyone working with young people, practical and preventative tools to understand these pressures and help your children build strong emotional resilience and healthy mental wellbeing.
