Who We Work With

We work with 11-18 year olds who are unable to engage effectively with mainstream education as a result of:

Social, emotional and mental health issues as a result of past experiences

Complex, traumatic life situations/experiences

Adverse childhood experiences (ACE)

Having an ACE score of 4+ dramatically affects the health, wellbeing and future life prospects of young people unless the effects of such experiences are addressed. Our interventions aim to develop self-regulation skills, helping young people to move from the automatic fight/flight/freeze responses to higher level executive function in order to see them thrive within a mainstream school and society as a whole.
