Safeguarding Young Minds
Mental health challenges do not spare the young. Recent studies by the Office for National Statistics show that approximately 10% of young people experience mental health conditions that are clinically recognisable.
Are you equipped to recognise and address mental health concerns among the children and adolescents you interact with? Do you know the signs that indicate a decline in mental well-being?
It is advised that you train at least two staff members (ideally of different genders) in Mental Health First Aid to ensure diverse perspectives and approaches.
