I had the pleasure of going to watch our fabulous committee member, @EmmaPrach’s, ‘Our Minds’ documentary on Saturday and it moved me to tears. Such a powerful message that each young person has their own individual struggles with their mental health, but no young person is alone

This #WorldMentalHealthDay we’re excited to announce that Project Sonrisa’s ‘Our Minds’ Documentary will be released on Saturday 15th October 2022! In order to tackle the stigma surrounding mental health we must all start having more meaningful conversations.

It really highlighted that young peoples’ mental health can be impacted in many different ways. It helped me look at my situation and notice things that I didn’t realise were impacting me. Having poor mental health can feel very isolating, but please know you aren’t alone ❤️

From all of us at SYP Health and Wellbeing, we offer our condolences to the Royal Family, after the tragic announcement of Queen Elizabeth II’s death. Out of respect for the late monarch, we have blacked out our social media and will not post until the mourning period is over.

Super important for parents to be there for their child during the transition between primary and high school as this change can be incredibly daunting for young people and this can impact their mental wellbeing. These are some amazing tips for how you can help support!

Parents, if your child is about to transition from primary to secondary school, here are four ways you can support them.
Give it time. Too much change at once can feel overwhelming too. So while it's great if they throw themselves into everything, don't worry if they don't. They need to adjust and relax. So resist the urge to quiz them too heavily as well.

Talk to them about the move. Chat about how they are feeling and how it will be different from primary and reassure them that feeling nervous about starting something new is normal. Be careful not to impose your own worries.

Help them get familiar with their new school. Most secondary schools organise transition days. If possible you could also print a school map to look at together. Minimising unknowns for one day can reduce anxiety.

Keep some reassuring routines. Trusted old friends and habits are comforting, particularly in the exhausting early weeks, if a child doesn't know anyone, or if they are finding it hard to settle.
