• Kooth launch in school today!

  Wed 02 Feb 2022

  We were pleased to welcome Evan to school assembly today to tell us about Kooth, an online platform and counselling service for young people in our area. 

  Evan showed a short presentation with the type of threads, conversation topics, types of support and most importantly how to log in if you need help or support or a listening ear.

  This is so important with social isolation being a challenge for children and young people across Wales at times, the need to access confidential, free and quick help is stronger than ever.

  Each learner will also be given a card they can keep in their phone case or purse/wallet and it's there when needed. Article 27 the right to the conditions you need to live well.
