My blog this week focuses on a question we were asked as part of a youth-led community meeting. “How does Exodus build wellbeing without using the label of mental health?”

It really made me think and I came to realise that everything Exodus does is to enhance our wellbeing without being overtly framed as something that will improve our mental health.

Colouring, food hubs, sports, 1:1 mentoring, group activities, volunteering, check ins with staff and volunteers, boxing, DJing, singing… even tidying up together to music.

Sometimes the most meaningful part of the week isn’t what you did, but what you discovered. Candace - aged 18

As part of our Summer Jobs Programme with Exodus we have been taking some time each week to reflect on the past week. Often it’s not about the actual tasks but what we learned about ourselves and in the relationships we are building with other people. I’m quickly finding out that there is more to youth work that I first imagined. - Marcia, aged 18

A Week to Remember - Looking back at Week 1 of Summer Jobs Programme with Exodus Youth!

Meeting the Mayor and reflecting with the team at the end of each day reminded me of the importance of stepping outside of my comfort zone and learning from every experience. This placement has already taught me so much, and I’m excited to see what the coming weeks bring.

Stay tuned for more blogs!
