Kintsugi Hope are fully committed to empowering local people to build safe spaces for their young people and equipping them with tools and techniques to look after their wellbeing. We achieve this through partnering with local Christian organisations such as churches, school work charities and schools. We want young people to have safe spaces where they can explore mental and emotional wellbeing, and where they are equipped with tools and techniques to help them navigate the ups and downs of life. Will you help us?
We have created a 6-week wellbeing group programme that runs in schools, youth groups, drop-ins and pupil referral units. These sessions have been written using different activity types, so they can be tailored to fit your context and not just a one-size-fits-all approach. The topics we look at are – honesty, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, shame & anger.

We also deliver talks to young people at festivals, conferences and schools around topics of wellbeing, faith, social media and life as a teenager. When you partner with us, you have priority in booking us for these bespoke training and speaking engagements.
Invite us to your eventWe are committed to equipping youth workers across the country with tools to help them equip their young peoples mental health. We continue to seek out opportunities to build new resources and most recently we have released an assembly plan that goes with each of our session weeks for schools. Our Kintsugi Hope Partners have access to these resources and assembly plans.
Sarah* had been attending one of our Kintsugi Hope Youth Wellbeing Groups in a local school. As part of the group, each participant received one of Kintsugi Hope's “okay” youth participant journal. One day, Sarah was on the field on her lunch break and started to have a panic attack. She remembered the grounding technique she was taught in the previous week in her youth wellbeing group. Due to the panic attack, she couldn’t concentrate on reading, so she handed her “okay” journal to her friend and got them to go through the exercise with her right there on the school field. Taking the steps in the booklet successfully calmed Sarah down.
