Community Offers
Packages for Children and Young People in Education Accessing education may be challenging for children and young people who have experienced adverse childhood experiences, these experiences often impact upon their own education and that of other young people within the school environment. Breathing Space offers these young people a safe environment in which to explore the obstacles that are preventing them from fully engaging in education.
We do this by offering a holistic approach incorporating group and 1:1 therapy sessions, creative therapy, outdoor activities, residentials and the opportunity to gain a recognised qualification.
​
It can be difficult for children and young people to talk with parents or family members about what they are thinking and feeling. Breathing Space offers children and young people a space to talk about their thoughts and feelings in a safe environment; enabling them to share any worries or concerns they may have whilst building their confidence and self-esteem.
