10K Run Or Walk For Mental Health · 15 July 2023 ·

Mind of the Student (MOTS) gives young people the confidence to speak about their mental health. We do this by delivering a school-wide mental health programme and community services which equip young people with the knowledge, confidence and skills to recognise and address their own mental health needs.

Story

Thank you for donating. 

As a family, we have all decided to participate in this event because we feel it is so important for our children to be given the guidance and tools that are needed to cope with mental health and all the various problems that it causes. We are being told as adults that it’s so important to TALK, but we need to educate our younger generation to do the same. Talking and sharing their worries helps to relieve anxiety. 

 Our children need all the help they can get at the moment with what they have been through in lockdowns and with the pressure of what lies ahead in their lives. Physical education is compulsory in schools, and we feel that it’s just as important for mental well-being to be introduced to all children. If we all think about it, don’t the majority of us suffer from some form of anxiety. As an adult, wouldn’t it have been nice to have been educated in your youth on how to cope with it . It’s not a cure, but it’s a big step in the right direction to improve quality of life.
