Wednesday
The theme of Children’s Mental Health Week 2023 is Let’s Connect, and we’re encouraging people to connect with others in healthy, rewarding, and meaningful ways. But what does connection mean to young people?
Thursday
Place2Be Ambassador, podcaster and journalist, Josh Smith, visited two secondary schools to ask students about the different ways they connect, and how connections can impact their mental health and wellbeing.
In this video, Josh and the students discuss how to make schools more connected and inclusive, touching on themes around LGBTQ+ and racial inclusion.
