It’s Time To Talk Day, but every day should be a time to talk day. We need to be honest about mental health. Talking will help save lives. If you don’t feel like you can talk to people in your life there are many organisations you can talk to.

An incredibly powerful and true message from @YoungMindsUK that we must all upheld #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek

You can be struggling and still be strong. You can be healing and still have hard days. Two things can be true at once. #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek

A sad day here at Surrey Virtual School, as we say goodbye to Joe, our Communications, Participation and Training Officer. We'll certainly miss the energy and enthusiasm that he brought to work everyday, leaving a positive impact on us all. Best of luck for the future Joe! 🌟

Think of it as a mix of group coaching, relational practice and peer supervision, with one eye on how you can take some of the approaches back to use in your school!
This is an in-person event, being held at Woodhatch (Reigate)

Today is said to be the hardest day of the year, and is a chance to acknowledge the sadness and depression that some may experience, especially during the winter months. We’ve put together a toolkit to help get through the days that feel hardest, knowing light will come again ✨
