Your mental health is more important than exams. If you didn't get the results you wanted, that's okay. Take a step back and let yourself feel whatever emotions come. Remember that there is more than one path to achieving your goals, and help is available if you need it.

Although the summer holidays can be an exciting time, after a few weeks of no school, it can quickly become lonely. If things get tough, remember that help is available.

Feeling lonely during a school break is very common. You've lost your daily routine and friends, and you may feel pressure to have fun, even if you don't feel like it.

Here's some tips to help you get through the summer blues 💙

Things may be quiet at the Centre over the summer, but we still get the occasional visitor... 🐈‍⬛

If you're struggling this summer break, don't forget that help is available. Make sure you're getting outside, connecting with friends and finding some sort of structure over the long summer days.

We are so grateful to The Charles Plater Trust for this award for outstanding commitment to delivering Social Justice in Action. With this grant, we will support vulnerable young people in North West London to work through mental health difficulties that are compounding access to education, housing, welfare and services.

By integrating therapeutic care with rights-based advocacy, we will help remove the obstacles that prevent young people from reaching their full potential.

Thank you to The Charles Plater Trust for recognising the value of this work.

Today is International Irish Traveller Day ☘️

We are proud of our established and growing relationship with the Irish Traveller community in Brent, and of the trust that young people and families place in our service.

Through our Irish Project, we provide inclusive, culturally informed therapeutic support for young people from all Irish communities, including those born in any part of Ireland, people of Irish descent, Irish people of colour, and Irish Travellers.

Many of the young Irish people we support are living with the effects of transgenerational trauma. As descendants of survivors of institutional abuse and/or the Northern Ireland conflict, they are at greater risk of experiencing mental health difficulties, including suicidal thoughts.

International Irish Traveller Day is an opportunity to recognise the culture, identity and contributions of Irish Travellers, while also acknowledging the barriers that continue to affect access to mental health support.

We remain committed to providing therapy that is inclusive, culturally responsive, and shaped by the experiences of the communities we serve. 💚

It was brilliant to be part of 's coffee morning today, celebrating their work and the next stage of their journey. We look forward to building closer links over the coming years to better support young people's mental health in our area. ☕

Therapy can feel daunting at first. But asking for help is the first step towards feeling more comfortable in who you are and finding a new perspective. Hear from some of our young people on how therapy helped them become the best version of themselves 💙

As another school year comes to an end, we'd like to thank teachers, school leaders and all school staff for everything you've done to support young people this year.

Alongside teaching, so many have spent time listening, noticing when something isn't right, and helping students access the support they need.

We're grateful to the schools we work with for making space for mental health.

We hope everyone has the opportunity to rest and recharge over the summer. We look forward to continuing our work together in the new academic year.

Thank you for everything you do.
