We improve the mental health and well-being of children and young people by designing and delivering wellness initiatives.
Understanding the Urgency
We get things right for children and young people struggling with their emotional and mental health because they deserve a good start in life, and a good start can lead to long-term improvements as adults.Demand for counselling is outpacing capacity for what children and young people have asked for most: someone to talk to when they are worried or upset and easier access to support when problems are emerging so they don't start to build up.We rescue the time to access help by designing and delivering emotionally relaxing experiences which celebrate endless imagination, sense of adventure and play for children, young people and families who are in the care of CAMHS, Councils, Charities and Schools.
Our Wellness Initiatives
Art Play: Creative Health & Wellbeing
Action Art Burst is an art play workshop for families, designed with game-like elements to encourage participants to create individual and group art spectacles. Through energetic boundaries, participants create art, express themselves creatively, get physically active, connect as a family and meet others.
Openly Explore: Making Space for Therapy
1:1 talking therapy using outdoor spaces to allow children to pursue their curiosities in a space and
setting which allows them to move freely. Typically this program is delivered through partnerships with public and community gardens.
