I have suffered with depression and anxiety from a young age, at the time help wasn't readily available. Fortunately, as an adult I have received amazing support from friends, family and doctors, and counsellors. Each interaction has had a profoundly positive effect. 

Current stats state that one in six children and young people now have a diagnosable mental health issue. Place2Be is the UK's leading school-based mental health charity, providing support to children, families and school-based staff when they need it most. Please help me support Place2Be’s vital work, and together we can make a real difference to children's mental health and ensure that children don’t have to face mental health problems alone.
