London’s digital mental wellbeing service, Good Thinking, has made a handy guide for parents to help guide their children through uncertain times.
They have also brought together a collection of resources to do with children to help them manage their wellbeing.
In a new collaboration between Bounce Forward and Thrive LDN, a series of online sessions is being launched for the beginning of 2021 for parents in London.
The sessions will help parents build the understanding, knowledge, and skills of resilience to help children thrive during this time of uncertainty. The sessions start with personal resilience to support parents to look after themselves, something which can be easily forgotten, and focus on resilience in the context of thriving and being able to be the best we can be in the small everyday moments.
You can find out more and register for the sessions online here.
To celebrate World Book Day 2020, Thrive LDN worked with Discover Children’s Story Centre to create a live performance of Tom Percival’s Ruby’s Worry, streamed live to schools across London.
