Our school will be taking part in Hello Yellow on Friday 10th October (World Mental Health Day) to raise awareness and funds for YoungMinds, the UK’s leading charity for young people’s mental health.

The number of young people in need of mental health support is growing faster than ever, and this is why HELLO YELLOW matters more than ever.  We’re taking this opportunity as a school community to come together and show our pupils we are with them and that they’re never alone with their mental health.

We will be taking part by wearing something YELLOW on the day.  Don’t worry if your child hasn’t got anything that colour – it will be a non-uniform day.

We ask if parents and carers could please consider making a donation to YoungMinds via our fundraising page for Hello Yellow HERE

Most importantly, we want to share the resources which YoungMinds offer to support parents and carers if you ever need help and advice to support your children. This includes:

• online resources https://www.youngminds.org.uk/parent/

• a phone line, open 9.30am-4pm (0808 802 5544)

• an online chat for parents and carers to speak to trained professionals if you’re concerned about your children’s mental health https://www.youngminds.org.uk/parents-helpline/

Together we can help young people feel seen, supported and never alone.

Thank you
