Welcome to the 66th edition of our information bulletin, ‘FYI’ (For Your Information).
As we enter the start of a new school year some challenges still remain for families in an ever-changing environment. Two of the key priorities for our Locality Planning Action Plans are Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Heath for Children & Young People and Supporting Parents & Caregivers. With this in mind, can we draw your attention to some very relevant opportunities for parents on pages 3-5 which have been organised through the CAWT MACE programme. Places are limited so please hurry to register!
We also have other opportunities, events and activities in this edition of ‘FYI’ and please forward this onto any relevant contacts you may have – whether colleagues or families with whom you work.
Welcome to the 65th edition of our information bulletin, FYI (For Your Information).
We are delighted to include a new resource for young people for emotional wellbeing and mental health. Over the last few months, members of the Emotional Wellbeing Network in the Southern Area have worked in co-production with young people to produce the Youth Wellness Web, an online resource for young people across Northern Ireland to access information and tips on maintaining good emotional wellbeing. All the details are on the slide 3 of the newsletter, so please share this valuable resource with young people, parents and anyone working with young people.
We also have the usual wide range of opportunities, activities and resources to keep everyone occupied!
Keep well and keep connected!!
