What we do
We produce evidence-based short films and factsheets to help teachers, parents, carers and others working with children to help recognise any potential mental health issues in Primary School aged children. These are freely available on our website Nip in the Bud.
We believe passionately that early intervention reduces the risk of these issues becoming more serious in later years.

It is intended to be used by 4-7 year olds alongside their parents and carers, or within education settings as a learning tool.
