This week, the stories we carry from the young people we work with remind us how vital it is to create spaces where they feel heard, supported & valued. 💛 If this time of year feels heavy – loneliness, pain, or overwhelm – know you're not alone.

As @Place2Be's #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek 2024 comes to a close, we commit to advocating for a preventive approach to mental health. Ensuring children's voices are heard is where this journey starts! 🌟 #MyVoiceMatters

@Place2Be @ArkCharter @ArkGlobeAcademy Wonderful to hear how much the young people you spoke to naturally turn to the arts and play to express themselves 💕🎨

Are you taking part in Express Yourself today for #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek? #ExpressYourself is about celebrating what makes you you and finding ways to express how you feel. So we asked pupils from @ArkCharter and @ArkGlobeAcademy how they like to express themselves.

We advocate for collaboration between government, schools and mental health professionals to prioritize children's emotional experiences. Together, let's truly listen to their voices and champion a holistic approach to education! #MyVoiceMatters #Ofsted @tesforteachers @DHSCgovuk

During @Place2Be's #childrensmentalhealthweek let's celebrate the transformative power of the creative arts in enabling non-verbal children and those with complex needs in getting their voice heard #MyVoiceMatters #ukedchat #inclusion @baat_org @badthopen @musictherapyuk @admpuk

When we actively listen and acknowledge the perspectives of the youngest members of our society, we can create spaces where ideas flourish and genuine connections thrive. This #childrensmentalhealthweek let’s reflect on how we listen to the children in our care. #myvoicematters

@BPSOfficial Great to see the views of those working directly with children on this. Feeling heard, and having their views and experiences valued and respected is such a powerful protective factor for children's ongoing mental health.

Children's voices matter. It's Children's Mental Health week and the theme is 'my voice matters'. Educational Psychologist's from across the country explain why it is so important that children's voices are heard. 👏 Thanks to the EP's who collaborated with us on this video.

As part of #childrensmentalhealthweek hosted by @Place2Be, some of the children we have been working with at The Emotional Health Hub shared their top tips on how adults might provide them with spaces to share their views, feelings and experiences. #MyVoiceMatters

As recent research has found, there aren't enough mental health professionals in the NHS to support the rising need. Children deserve access to timely care, and increased funding for mental health support is urgently needed: ow.ly/5voh50QyPVy #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek

This #childrensmentalhealthweek let’s take some time to consider how we listen to children to ensure they really feel heard, understood and respected. #myvoicematters

Calling all parents, teachers, child therapists and social workers! Let's unite for #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek in emphasizing the importance of listening and fostering an environment where every child feels #MyVoiceMatters. @tes @bacp @socialworkeng @ukcp_updates

We take pride in working with schools that prioritize #ChildMentalHealth and #PupilWellbeing. Central to our work is the art of listening to children, and empowering professionals to respond well when children express their struggles. #childrensmentalhealthweek #myvoicematters

The theme of Place2Be's #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek 2024 is #MyVoiceMatters. @EmotHealthHub, we'll be highlighting how listening to children's views, feelings and experiences makes them feel understood and respected, impacting their emotional health and wellbeing.

In @GlobalEENET ’s recent Enabling Education Review, we consider children who struggle to regulate their emotions in stressful situations due to differences in their brain’s emotion networks. eenet.org.uk/resources/docs… #inclusion #traumainformedclassrooms #emotionalregulation

The thing is, once you understand that absolutely every single ‘mental health disorder’ is actually either a trauma response or a coping mechanism, it changes the way you look at everything.

Read our article in the current issue of @GlobalEENET’s Enabling Education Review about how inclusive classrooms can foster positive mental health #edutwitter #inclusion #childrensmentalhealth

Humans have an innate need to relate and connect. An important part of true connection is expressing our feelings with another. Here Therapist @NedraTawwab lists responses that hinder this connection and negatively impact emotional growth. #connection #emotionalhealth #feelings
