Feedback on Youth in Mind
Mighty Minds
Worry jars were my favourite activity because it was very fun, and I think it has really helped me at home.
Buddies
When my worker came to see me, I was unsure, but it has been the best thing ever, having someone just for me.
Know Your Mind
People who don’t know me just don’t understand but you have, right from the beginning.
