Situation
LIFEbeat supports disadvantaged, vulnerable young people in London facing mental health challenges and complex social and family situations. They are often victims of bullying, prejudice and are disengaged. There are currently increased levels of anxiety and depression and the effects of COVID-19 are exacerbating the problem. The effects of the crisis are likely to have a long lasting impact on young people’s mental health and wellbeing. They need the stability and skilled guidance we provide.
Solution
LIFEbeat delivers creative, transformational programmes providing vulnerable young people with belonging and community spirit. A 12 year track record proves our programmes alleviate isolation; anxiety and depression and build hope and resilience. In response to COVID-19 we are offering young people online support; a safe space to tell their stories, feel valued and learn new skills. This includes mental wellbeing sessions, counselling support and creative, personal development workshops.
