1 in 5 children are living with mental health difficulties and many struggle to attend and engage in school. AT The Bus provides a calm and creative environment in schools, where they can build new friendships, express themselves, build confidence and self-esteem.

We provide weekly small group sessions during the school day in our double decker bus, or in specially designed studio spaces within schools. Each session starts with children eating together, sharing stories and news, and working together creating wonderful new works of art. We also provide workshops for teachers, parents/carers and others to support wellbeing and educational outcomes for all young people.

This year we are working in 15 schools in Oxfordshire and London and have a waiting list of new schools wanting to work with us. Please sponsor us and help us to benefit many more young lives through the power of art.
