A Way of Being (Health & Wellbeing Programme to Empower Young People)

18th August 2022
We are running a funded project, A Way of Being, designed to support the health and wellbeing of local young people aged 16–24 who are experiencing a range of mental health challenges.
In response to the post-pandemic mental health crisis affecting young people in York, this project offers early, accessible, and person-centred support.
A recent Healthwatch North Yorkshire study found:
• 1 in 6 young people (16–24) has probable mental health issues
• 83% say the pandemic made their mental health worse
💬 What the programme includes:
• Counselling
• Personal Development Coaching
• Integrated Wellbeing Classes
This 12‑week holistic programme helps young people:
• Build emotional resilience
• Increase energy and reduce stress
• Develop tools for lifelong self-care
• Connect in a safe, inclusive group setting
🗓 The project starts on 18 September 2022
