Create awareness about mental health issues and to help people who struggle with mental health without singling people out and making them uncomfortable. This helps to show that they are not alone.
Our Social Issue
We have chosen to look at mental health issues. We believe that mental health is covered in the subject sphe but there is very little done to help aid mental health in an educational environment.
Our Innovative Action
As a TY group we decided that we wanted to do something for the 3rd years as we remembered how stressed and worried we were as third years in their places. We decided we would do an information morning where we supplied tea and made a presentation of what we did to help reduce our stress levels. They really enjoyed this as it gave them a class to relax and ask questions regarding exams and how to cope with the stress of exams.
