BrightPaths Support C.I.C

BrightPaths Support CIC was established to provide early emotional well-being support for children and young people. Our mission is to positively impact their lives by creating a safe space for their emotional development and overall growth. The Need for Early Interventions Our services are essential because many children and young people lack inclusive and accessible emotional support services at an early stage. We have seen many cases where young individuals are in dire need of support but cannot access it. Shockingly, statistics show that 10% of children and young people have clinically diagnosable mental problems, but a staggering 70% have not received early interventions. Services Offered by BrightPaths Support At BrightPaths Support, we offer various services, including early help to prevent children from falling between the gaps in provision and giving them a safe place to be heard and supported. Our mentoring sessions provide one-on-one guidance and support to young individuals who may be struggling with their emotions. We also offer group workshops that allow children and young people to engage in interactive activities and discussions that help improve their emotional literacy and social skills and early targeted support to prevent children from being overlooked. Impact of Our Services Our impact is significant, including improved emotional literacy, increased resilience and self-esteem, better social skills and stronger friendships, and reduced worries, stress, and anxiety. We work to reduce fixed-term and permanent exclusions, and our services are crucial to supporting the mental health of our youth.
