Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the tragic incident over the weekend. It will be felt far beyond those immediately involved, touching families, friends, neighbours, colleagues, and many people who live, work, travel through, or care for others in the area.

We also extend our condolences to our colleagues at Cleveland Police as they come to terms with the loss of two of their officers, something no organisation, or family, should have to go through.

Our school mental health team in South Durham is here to share practical tips for young people on results day ✨

💪 Education mental health practitioner, Jess, said: “Don’t get yourself stuck in thinking traps. It can be really easy to compare yourself to other people.

“Just remember that everybody is in the same boat today and everybody has their own strengths.”

🪞Kerry, psychological therapist, said: “Don’t make any rash decisions.

“Take the time to reflect and think about what you want to do next.”

😊 Kerry also said: “Remember self-care. It’s important to take the time to do things you enjoy and that are important to you.”

Search for the Results Day Hub on our website for more information, support and resources ❤️
