13+ Online Group
Join our 13+ Online Group, a supportive and inclusive space for young people aged 13 and over to discuss the things that matter most—friendships, emotions, family, and life’s challenges. These sessions create a safe and welcoming environment where you can share experiences, ask questions, and explore healthy ways to cope with everyday struggles. Through interactive discussions, creative activities, and practical wellbeing techniques, we’ll cover important topics to help you feel heard, supported, and resilient. Whether you want to share your thoughts, listen to others, or simply take part in engaging conversations, this is a place where you belong. You’re not alone, and what you feel matters!
You can join the group sessions and attend regularly or you can come along when you see a topic that is relevant to you. Every week, the children and young people who have attended the session will be able to pick next week’s topic. All content and discussions in this group will be carefully tailored to be age-appropriate, ensuring that topics are presented in a way that is both engaging and suitable for children’s developmental levels.
We cover common topics such as:
- Understanding Emotions
- Friendships
- Coping Strategies
- Self-harm
- Abuse & Exploitation
- Changes
- Bullying
- How to cope at school
- Identity
- Screen time
- Self-care
- Homelife
- Sleep
- And many more to come…
