ADHD looks different for everyone. It’s not just about being distracted or forgetful it can affect focus, organisation, time management, emotions and everyday life too.

This month is a reminder to learn more, challenge the stereotypes and be a little more understanding.

A few things that can help:
✨ Break tasks down into smaller steps
⏰ Set reminders and alarms
📝 Write things down instead of trying to remember everything
🎧 Find an environment that helps you focus
🤝 Don’t be afraid to ask for support
💛 And remember, progress doesn’t have to be perfect

A little understanding can go a long way. 💛

Your mental health matters. It’s okay to slow down, ask for help, set boundaries, and take care of yourself.

Let’s create a world where talking about mental health feels safe, support is accessible, and asking for help is seen as a strength. 🌿

Be kind. Check in. Listen. Speak up.

A lovely wellbeing session filled with creativity, mindfulness and breathing activities. 🩵

Young people explored their emotions through a fun balloon activity, followed by a breathing exercise of their choice. They also enjoyed mindful colouring sheets with positive and motivational quotes.

A time to honour the history, celebrate the achievements, and recognise the contributions of Black communities in the past, present and future.

Let’s continue to learn, celebrate, uplift one another, and create a future where every voice is valued and every contribution is recognised.

Honouring the past. Celebrating the present. Inspiring the future. ✨

40km for Compass’ 40th! 🏃🏻

To celebrate Compass’ 40th anniversary, Jordan, Keenah, Peter and Ollie took on a 40km run, completing the challenge and raising an incredible £800+ for Acorns Children’s Hospice.

They originally set out to raise £250, so to have more than doubled their target is an amazing achievement!
A huge thank you to everyone who supported and donated along the way. 💙

Celebrating our 40th Anniversary with our Baton of Kindess Relay Walk!

For our 40th Anniversary, we’ve been going around schools conducting special workshops on how to look after your mental and physical wellbeing! What makes these workshops really special is that we’ve asked young people across Birmingham to design T-shirts for our staff to wear during our Baton of Kindness Relay Walk! ✨🫶🏼

Thank you so much to all the lovely young people who shared their creativity and talent with us!🩵
