Bereavement Support
We have a group of children who take an interest in health and wellbeing and want to help their peers develop a healthier lifestyle. Our Mental Health Champion‘s will work with our Pastoral Services and Mental Health Support Team to develop skills to deliver positive health messages. These children will then provide peer support through demonstrating and promoting the 5 ways to wellbeing.
At Ryvers we understand it is a challenging time for all. It is it is vital to focus on the mental well-being of all in your family.
