Young Minds Matter

The project will support young homeless people from Mansfield with mental health conditions including anxiety/depression. The young people will develop resilient, transferable life skills through support from a behavioural psychologist and engaging in weekly outdoor sports activities. The grant will pay for the behavioural psychologist, coaching fees, a contribution to organisational overheads, direct project costs, equipment and an external evaluation. The project improve the young people’s mental health, increase their engagement and support them with transitions whilst also ensuring that the homeless accommodation becomes a more supportive psychologically informed environment.
