Story

One in five children and young people now have a diagnosable mental health problem, and many more struggle with challenges from bullying to bereavement. Today, half of adults with mental health problems first experienced symptoms by the age of 14.

We believe every child should have easy access to mental health support. Whenever they need it. Find out more about the work we do here.

By taking part in or supporting Great North Run 2024 with Place2Be, together we can ensure that more children and young people get the support they need before it's too late.

Thank you so much for supporting Place2Be and helping to bring us closer to a future where no child has to face mental health problems alone.
