Been arguing with British Gas for an hour about how they can justify charging ma gran £170 a month on her gas alone n they absolutely did not care that if she pays that it will leave her way next to nothing, the rise in the cost of living and energy bills is terrifying!!!

One of the best training courses I’ve ever done!! It’s vital and everyone from employers, teachers, young people, professionals, parents etc will benefit from it as it is so impactful and informative

@YoungPersonSupp Brilliant approach! Thank you ☺️

Not to sound like a crabbit old woman but the amount of ‘anti social behaviour’ I’ve seen about NA recently particularly wee boys about 12/13 is so uncomfortable n disappointing n it’s not like it’s harmless n them just being wains it’s genuine disturbing n concerning behaviour🙁

@YoungPersonSupp I was wondering where/how to go about reporting these kinds of incidents but im not aware of anywhere to bring up the concerns that would approach it in a helpful manner rather than getting them into bother if that makes sense? Would be good to have that info if possible

@YoungPersonSupp I was thinking that myself as it can only really be tackled in schools/community groups etc think it’s mainly relevant to the busses/bus stops I don’t really notice it anywhere else, i probably notice it more because I use public transport multiple times a day 🤣

@cfergusonNA I couldn’t agree more Charleigh!! We put so much focus on academic performance and achievement, why don’t we put the same energy and enthusiasm into teaching CYP to love themselves, the importance of rest, their voice, their body etc. It should be the other way around!

Its important that children are taught how to take care of their own minds from as young as they can understand and make sense of it in their own way, growing up with the skills on how to nurture themselves (and others) and cope with life would make a monumental difference!!

I’ve never understood parents/schools that won’t broach the subject of mental health/mental illness, it could save so many peoples lives and change the entire path they follow in the future if they learn how to make sense of their emotions and feel comfortable opening up
