One-Eighty Information

Mental health needs for young people can affect home life, friendships, school attendance, attainment and behaviour, putting young people at risk of school exclusions, youth offending and social exclusion. We believe that every young person can flourish with the right support and strategies. We know that with persistence, involving those around them (families, their school and other professionals) and by meeting young people where they are at; we can engage them in their learning journey, even when they are at a point in their lives when they often reject support. We offer services for young people aged 4-18. We provide a range of intensive interventions and prevention programmes to address behaviour and learning attitudes and enable young people to reflect on their situations, and challenge the effects that life events may have had on them. We draw on a range of psychological techniques and practises to tailor interventions specifically to each young person’s needs.
