Children's Mental Health Week 6th -12th Feb 2023 - "Let's Connect."
Let’s Connect is all about making meaningful connections. People thrive in communities, and this connection is vital for our wellbeing. When we have healthy connections – to family and friends and others – this supports our mental health and our sense of wellbeing.
For Children’s Mental Health Week 2023 at Farnborough, we’re encouraging people to connect with others in healthy, rewarding and meaningful ways.
Part of making healthy connections can include;
1. Spending time together, talking and sharing common interests.
2. Participating in activities together, maybe even learning a new skill. Why not try taking up a new hobby together like Judo or art?
3. Helping your child to develop strong friendships, based on kindness, trust and shared interests.
4. Taking time away from screens and having a, "digital diet" ensuring that screen time is used in short bursts for stimulating activities, not developing an unhealthy "junk food" diet of time addicted to technology.
