This evening the Explorers had a guest speaker from West Sussex Council to discuss mental health awareness and ways to wellness. This was timed to coincide with time to talk day.
During the evening, we covered several different topics including some general facts and knowledge, key terms (including anxiety and depression), mental health triggers, ways to improve mental health and wellbeing before applying their knowledge to some youth case studies.
The Explorers were engaged throughout and showed real maturity in discussing a subject which is sensitive to many.
We finished with a few games to help everyone decompress and relax after a very informative evening!
