Carys was proud to be accepted onto the Summer School, which took place earlier this week. Some brilliant, informative lectures taken by leaders in their field. The Wolfson Centre is a Cardiff University-based research centre which focuses on youth mental health and is at the forefront of mental health research here in Wales.

Grounding techniques can help us when we’re feeling out of touch with our body and surroundings. They can help us reconnect to the present moment.

This might be because we’re experiencing difficult emotions, like fear, anxiety or anger. You can also use grounding techniques if you’re experiencing a panic attack.

This technique uses all 5 senses, and can be used any time.

Great to see so many of our lovely parents/carers for our informal, social meeting last night at the Three Blackbirds, Cwmbran. And honoured to welcome two new faces to our non judgemental peer support group. We hope you found support and understanding amongst us. We were so pleased that you were able to talk to others dealing with similar challenges and that we could all share resources and recommendations that you can explore further.
Thank you to all our parents/carers who have joined us over the course of this, our second year, of REACH. We are delighted that word is getting out there. We take a one month break from meetings during August, but you can still contact us via Facebook or email (reach.torfaen@gmail.com or reach.cardiff@gmail.com) and we will do our best to get back to you ASAP.
We'll be back in September with plenty on the horizon, from speakers, to attending school wellbeing fayres. Look out for forthcoming announcements 🙂
Take care, everyone,
Sue & Rachel REACH Torfaen
Carys and Sam REACH Cardiff
