Wales Active in Mind
Description
Active in Mind Wales will be funded by ‘The Winter of Wellbeing’ with the aim of providing activities to support the social, emotional and physical wellbeing of children and young people across Wales.
The projects create a nurture group environment for young people most in need of support. The primary outcomes are to address inactivity and develop positive behaviours, provide a safe environment for young people to share personal insight and experiences with their peers and support mental health issues.
Each project is supported by a named and trained Wellbeing Champion (lead adult member of staff) and delivered through a small team of Young Mental Health Champions who receive advanced training on developing strategies to improve mental wellbeing and reduce stress and anxiety.
We are looking to identify schools to be involved in this programme from April 2022 to July 2022.
