An invaluable tool to get boys age 11-14 talking about mental health

Talking costs nothing but it can change your life for the better

Growing up is hard work! You’re expected to ace your exams, be responsible, keep up a hectic social life both online and IRL, make big decisions about your future, and somehow stay happy at the same time. But, as we know, no one feels OK all the time, so what happens then? What happens when we don’t feel great and don’t know what to do about it or where to get help?
