Mental Health
Our Family Hub understands the problems of mental health issues well, in both adults and children.
We work closely with MIND, which runs “Connected Minds”, a course for children in years 6 – 8. This comprises an 9-week course held at the Hub. A referral request needs to be made. https://dorsetmind.uk/what-we-offer/young-people-services/young-people-groups/connected-minds/connected-minds-referral-form/
We offer group support sessions regularly and are free to sit down with a cuppa and chat—so let’s talk!
In the meantime – here are some great resources:

Kooth, commissioned by Dorset Council provides an online service for those aged 11-19. No referral is needed, any young person can simply sign up: https://www.kooth.com/
