It was so rewarding! Especially when each school absolutely saw the value in the role they can play in identifying and intervening early 💚
What fab week attending the Eating Disorder Conference in London @psyjess.bsky.social then we delivered Eating Disorder Prevention Programme training to some truly wonderful primary schools.

In some inner-London boroughs it's now more than one in ten.

And we wonder why the "disadvantage gap" at school is widening again.
Startling and horrifying new research from Shelter.

One in 78 children in England are homeless and living in temporary accommodation.

Figures that have surged 15% in the last year due to a shortage of social homes, rising evictions and sky-high private rents.

I had the pleasure this morning of speaking with a group of wonderful Year 10’s where we explored normalising conversations about mental health, creating their own personal support maps, and reframing negative thoughts into more realistic ones 💚#MentalHealthMatters #schools #Resilience #Wellbeing

I will likely post more about this study later, but for now I'll just say that this pre-registered open-data study we started before COVID has found a home in Psychotherapy Research. Hooray!

Headline: Does social avoidance maintain social anxiety? Looks like it, but maybe not for all.
