Will you help provide that support by making a donation today?

Your donation helps Place2Be make a vital difference to children in schools across the UK
Specialist support can help
Children and young people struggling with their emotional wellbeing can also struggle to find the words to explain how they’re feeling. Specialist support can help make sure they’re heard.
A safe space
Place2Be counsellors work on building trust and bonding through drawing, artwork, and games. This helps children and young people gradually feel safe sharing their thoughts and feelings and getting the support they urgently need.
One-to-one support
Trained counsellors tailor sessions according to each child’s needs in an age-appropriate way. For younger children, our therapeutic approach encourages them to express themselves in non-verbal ways, for example, through artwork or play.
