Wellbeing and resilience are words we frequently hear but what do they actually mean and why are they so important? As youth workers, how can we help develop resilience skills and strengthen the wellbeing of the young people we support?
This training provides key insight into understanding adolescent mental health and brain development, along with the practical skills to recognise the indicators of an underlying mental health concern and the tools/activities to support.
The course gives free downloadable resources to compliment your work whether that be in a 1:1 setting in school, church, youth work or mentoring, as well as whole youth group approaches to improving emotional wellbeing.

• An overview of the state of adolescent mental health in the UK, including latest statistics
• An overview of mental health conditions
• An understanding of adolescent brain development
