'Now I will be more confident and stronger and I don't need to be shy or scared of anything!'
Feedback from a Year 6 pupil at @Sandfields_Pri who took part in our Resilience Programme this week.
Thanks to @1910Trust for making this possible.

Year 6 pupils in Dosbarth Lido became explorers today, exploring the fantastic nature close to home! Courage, perseverance and resilience allowed everyone to achieve the rock climbing challenge! #Callofthewild

The children at Alltwen Primary certainly know how to thank the team! A signed bag of biscuits to go with our tea when we're out and about! 😊

We had an amazing time helping the children at Alltwen Primary build their resilience and learn valuable life skills. This fantastic project was fully funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting a group of young people from Children's Services for a resilience day filled with excitement and personal growth!
Thank you to @PrincipalityBS and our colleague Rebecca for funding the day.

We're proud to be inclusive! We recently had the pleasure of working with twin girls who both have a visual impairment and brittle bones. It was truly wonderful to see them fully participate in every activity!
"The children have not stopped talking about it, you were amazing!"

[Call of the Wild Development Trust CIO @COTWdevtrust]

A huge thank you to the @1910Trust for their recent funding award! This support for our Resilience Programme will make a real difference for 34 children at Sandfields Primary School in the next academic year. Thank you for believing in our work!

"Now I am going to go out on more walks and be more outdoorsy. I have learned that mental toughness isn’t about looking tough and you should look on the bright side of life. Never give up. I would recommend this programme because it is very amazing"

'My best memory this week was feeling the breeze at the top of the mountain and remembering that I did this for grandad. I felt very proud of myself'

The best testimonial we could ask for!

This is what Resilience is all about!
Despite being visually impaired, one of the girls on our Resilience Programme managed to hike a mountain, climb a rock face and jump off a waterfall!
What a privilege to provide this experience for her! #NPTEngagement #NPTCouncil #UKSPF

Lovely unscripted moment this morning in the Welsh Parliament as a brilliant young choir from Ysgol Treganna in Cardiff - singing Safwn yn y Bwlch in rehearsal - bump into the Prime Minister (watch their reaction at the end 🎶)
