The Sowenna Appeal is raising money for equipment and therapeutic programmes that go above what the NHS provides, to aid activities which will have a positive impact on the health, wellbeing and recovery of children and young people in Cornwall.

Story

As part of our commitment to 'Giving something back' we have teamed up with The Sowenna Appeal in a charity partnership to raise funds and support them in their mission to raise £1.2million to transform Sowenna into the UK's best adolescent mental health unit for young people in Cornwall & the Isles of Scilly.

Building a brighter future for young people in Cornwall

It is estimated that 1 in 10 young people aged between 5 and 16 have a mental disorder. Most can be treated within the community, but some require a more intensive programme of treatment and care.Currently some of our most ill and vulnerable young people are travelling hundreds of miles away from their family and friends to hospitals in Birmingham, Essex, Kent and Cheshire to access psychiatric treatment.We are delighted that we will soon be in a position to support these young people much closer to home through Sowenna Cornwalls first adolescent mental health unit which is currently being built on the Bodmin Hospital site.
