Take a look at our resourcesThe theme for Children's Mental Health Week 2025 is 'Know Yourself, Grow Yourself'
We want Children’s Mental Health Week 2025 to encourage children, young people and adults to grow and develop by embracing and building self-awareness.
Know Yourself, Grow Yourself will put a spotlight on how we can build resilience, grow and develop by understanding who we are and what makes us tick.
The more we understand about ourselves, the better we're prepared to tackle life's ups and downs. Our in-school counsellors help children and young people in the UK cope with some of the most challenging times in their lives. By helping them get to understand and accept themselves, they start to build self-awareness. This allows them to develop the skills they need to cope with what life throws at them.
During Children’s Mental Health Week we want to celebrate children and young people building resilience, embracing self-awareness and forming strong connections with others.
