Children's Mental Health Week was first launched in 2015 to shine a spotlight on the importance of children's and young people’s mental health. Now in its tenth year, the hope is to encourage more people than ever to get involved and spread the word. The theme this year is Know Yourself, Grow Yourself and runs from 3rd-9th February.

Mental Health Awareness week, hosted by the Mental Health Foundation, takes place from 10-16 May 2021 and, the theme this year is Nature.

During this last year more of us have connected with nature than ever before, during our daily walks and being able to enjoy being in the open. One of the aims of the week is to inspire more people to connect with nature and noticing the impacts that this connection can have for their mental health. We have a range of resources that can be used during the week to encourage children to #ConnectWithNature.
