Online safety is high on priorities right now - we are excited to be offering a new CPD event for professionals, families and anyone supporting young people. You will learn strategies & exactly what our young people are seeing and hearing online everyday. buff.ly/TpDBBFt

We will reopen on Monday 5th January to resume working to help young people live healthy lives. 🌱

As Step 2 comes to a close for the end of 2025 we would like to take this opportunity to say an enormous THANK YOU to everyone who has worked in partnership, with us, and supported us throughout this year. It really does have an incredible impact on the young people we support!

This week some of the Step 2 Counselling Team has done some continuing professional development in working with interpreters. 🌍 Huge thank you to Azam from @SolaceLeeds for delivering a really fantastic informative training!

In a single month at Step 2 we delivered over 200 counselling sessions in Secondary schools alone! ✨ Counselling can help schools meet the demands of supporting students with mental health, life issues & coping with school. 🌈 To learn more head to step2.org.uk

Working to improve the lives of young people means also working to support the people around them too. Such a pleasure to be able to be part of this! 🌈

@ThinkingBig_UK Thank you for having us! ✨

@step2yph thank you again!

The March Hub topic was puberty. Members said they got "fantastic insight" into what their children were going through and how to support them. The sessions were "very informative" and "brilliant", and Liz from Step2 supported great discussions with members.

It's Children's Mental Health Week! "Even the offer of counselling can both normalise access to support for mental health..." Find out more about how Step 2 counselling supports children in Bradford, and how you can too... step2.org.uk/post/know-your… #childrensmentalhealthweek
