👩‍👦 Childhood is our chance to act. In the Scottish budget, we’re calling for a positive investment in childhood: a new £15m fund that ensures every primary school can put in place mental health and wellbeing supports.

Here's what you need to know.

⛴️ Last month we took a trip north to visit Cassia who delivers our services in Orkney primary schools.

The positive impact was evident: one headteacher told us that Place2Be was “one of the most important interventions we have ever had for mental health and wellbeing".👇

[Place2Be @Place2Be]

🗨️ "I am moved by the respect and affection school staff show their pupils, and by the strong sense of collective responsibility shown for them."

Follow Place2Be counsellor, Cassia, as she reflects on her work within the Orkney community in Scotland. 👉 https://t.co/Wk6R2KDIue
