Positive Minds & Take 5

We have series of videos for you to watch by both our young leaders and a Fresh Minds Education Mental Health facilitator. Watch these before you read your Positive Minds magazine.

We know that your mental health is serious matter and inside the magazine will tell you what you might do if you recognise any of the feelings we explore. #ConnectWithSupport
