One-Eighty - The First 10 Years
When I started One-Eighty, I never imagined the impact we would have made 10 years on!
From supporting just 12 young people in our first year to 10 years on where we gave hope, inspired and engaged hundreds of young people, their families and professionals working with young people.
Through 1,111 one-to-one sessions, we gave young people and their parents/ carers hope for the future
We inspired 276 young people through our preventative mental health projects
We engaged 280 professionals to gain further skills to support young people with their mental health through our webinars, training courses and external supervision.
One-Eighty is needed now more than ever. The needs and demands of young people’s mental health have become more complex and have been further exacerbated by the pandemic, creating more and more pressure on children’s mental health services. At the same time, resources, staffing levels and funding for children’s services have been shrinking. If left unresolved, mental health problems can significantly affect young people’s social and educational development, which in turn can negatively impact adult life.
We are so proud to celebrate 10 years of One-Eighty and are determined to keep committing our skills and expertise to try and prevent this from worsening over the next decade.
You can help us to achieve this vision by supporting One-Eighty with a one-off or regular donation. Your support will enable us to provide hope and inspiration for children and young people who are dealing with trauma, bereavement, mental health difficulties or difficult family circumstances.
Together we can continue to turn more young lives around.
