Growing for Wellbeing Week

▤ Summary

Often, these individuals can slip through the net and end up being disengaged from school, their family, friends and wider social networks resulting in a devastating effect on their lives. Becoming engaged and interested in new skills, even for a short time, can start to reverse any decline and get people back onto a more stable footing. Radishes will grow almost anywhere, fast; cress can be grown on some blotting or kitchen paper so doesn’t need soil, and salad leaves can be harvested within a short space of time. If you’d like to have a more hands-on, teacher-guided experience, they also offer school visits and workshops, which are especially valuable to children who might be struggling with mental health illnesses, difficult home situations, anxiety and low confidence so you might think about these for when lockdowns are lifted fully. You can also help raise awareness of the importance of supporting children and adult’s mental health during the week by adding the dates to your calendars and publicising it on your social media channels using #GYOforWellbeing.
