What is this club?

If your child feels lost and isolated and is on a long waiting list for 121 therapy, we can help in the meantime in one of our groups. Our structured programme within a group environment helps them learn strategies to help themselves and make friends in the process. Having an experienced leader alongside the young people also helps them voice their struggles and realise that others feel the same - they are not alone after all! The club environment is a good transition into other clubs once they realise that they can cope with being with others and is also a good transition back into school, where they may have dropped out.

There are also optional activities to be done at home and the weekly framework helps them feel supported and in a place where they can begin to develop friendships. Once the 12 weeks have been completed other options are explored such as our follow on 'Common Room' or going together to a local youth club.

Each session includes creative wellbeing activities, mindfulness, strategies to support anxiety, games and eating together. We manage to find activities that they all enjoy.

Where it is wanted we also provide an environment where parents can support each-other as well.
