Young Minds is a charity that I have been particularly focused on as it is for people under the age of 25 to seek help with mental ill health. They are the UK's leading charity committed to helping improve wellbeing and mental health of young people by educating, making people become aware that it is 'normal' to have mental health problems and actively helps schools to promote resilience by teaching all staff - even caretakers in case they believe someone is in a vulnerable situation or if they ask them for help. They make their 'toolkits' available for anyone to access so they can teach themselves in case they may find them in a position of confinement from younger people.
The charity can help in schools by educating in workshops, activities, teacher training and speaking directly to young people. The charity will work well as it is called 'Young Minds' therefore would hopefully make younger people feel like not just adults have mental health problems but people of all ages do.
