Company activities and impact

Mental Health Natters provides 1:1 Therapeutic Mentoring, 1:1 Education Mentoring, small groups for young people and a monthly parent support group. We work with families in Abingdon and surrounding areas who are struggling with their mental health and school attendance. Our office is located in the town centre and we have strong links with local schools, social services, CAMHS, GPs and other organisations. Our approach is holistic in that we support and link the young person, parents and school to ensure that change can be consistent and sustainable. Our aim is to improve the mental wellbeing of each young person, and in turn their parents, by providing weekly support. Our sessions focus on each young person’s unique strengths and interests, to boost their self esteem, re engage them in learning and work towards next steps. Our work has benefitted the local community in the following ways: - Developing links between schools and families. - Supporting schools to understand the needs of their students. - Offering local organisations including CAMHS, GPs and social services an alternative organisation to support families. - Supporting the development of cohesive community support for families by connecting with other local organisations. - Meeting the needs of local families by developing our offer where we identify themes. - Giving young people and parents an accessible safe space in their community. - Improving the wellbeing of young people and their parents. - Sharing the art and creative work of our young people and parents during Art Week and a Pop Up event at Christmas. - Working with local organisations such as Medina, Makespace and the Carousel Family Centre. - Increasing footfall in the town centre due to our central location. - Supporting local businesses by accessing them with our young people.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our stakeholders are the families we support and the schools we work with. We gather ongoing anecdotal feedback from families and distribute to families an annual survey which they can complete anonymously. We are also developing a feedback form for families who no longer need our support. We hold termly meetings with our key schools and have open communication so that we can adapt our support to meet the needs that both we, and schools identify. In this way we have developed our group provision, so now offer in-school groups and are due to start a new two hour group for a specific year 11 group.
