Mission Statement
Place2Be works in 500+ schools across the UK offering emotional and therapeutic support to 116,000 children. Many of the children that we work with are regularly facing challenges such as domestic violence, sexual abuse, family breakdown and parents who misuse drugs and alcohol. We offer children a safe space to address their worries and anxieties in a way that suits them, enabling them to develop healthy coping mechanisms and build emotional resilience that will help prevent them from entering a downward spiral of low aspirations, poor educational achievement and exclusion from school. Anna, age 6, told us: 'when my heart felt like lead, Place2Be made it feel like gold.'
About This Cause
Place2Be is the UK’s leading children's mental health charity providing in-school support and expert training to improve the emotional wellbeing of pupils, families and school staff. We have school-based teams across England, Scotland and Wales. We provide a ‘whole school’ approach with a flexible menu of services including one-to-one counselling, a self-referral service and group work. These services help children to cope with wide-ranging and often complex social issues including bullying, bereavement, domestic violence, family breakdown, neglect and trauma. Place2Be also provides a range of high quality professional qualifications for counsellors and other professionals working with children and families.
