🌟 Children's Mental Health Week 2025 🌟
Children's Mental Health Week, launched by Place2Be, is an annual initiative to empower, equip, and give a voice to children and young people across the UK. This year’s theme, Know Yourself, Grow Yourself, encourages self-awareness and personal growth, helping young people build resilience to face life’s challenges.

Taking place from 3-9 February 2025, this marks the 11th year of the campaign. It's a time for everyone—children, young people, and adults—to reflect on what self-awareness means and how it can foster growth.💙
