Thanks to @FirstGiveUK for today’s charity event @SaracensHighSch that gave young people a platform to explore issues that they’re passionate about and an opportunity to support causes that are important to them. Great to also share the day with @StreetDoctors and @BarnetFoodbank

As part of Children’s Mental Health Week we visited Saints Peter and Paul Catholic High School in Widnes. It’s important for children to feel seen, heard and supported, and honest conversations in safe spaces can help protect their mental health. #childrensmentalhealthweek
