"A child in distress is not looking for attention, but for understanding."

We believe mental wellbeing is the foundation from which children and young people achieve their potential. By continually expanding our understanding and translating it into practice, we can ensure they get the right support at the right time.

This September, we’re bringing together psychoanalytic and psychodynamic practitioners, academics and researchers from around the world for the 46th International Psychoanalytic Child Psychotherapy Colloquium.

Don’t miss this opportunity to network and share practice with your colleagues and learn from experts in the field.

☀️ School's Out for Summer! ☀️

The summer holidays have begun (how has it been a few days already!) , and we know keeping the kids entertained on a budget can be tricky. Luckily, there are plenty of fun, free or low-cost things to do in Leighton Buzzard.

Here are some local ideas to get you started:

🌳 Tiddenfoot Waterside Park – Pack a picnic, enjoy a walk, feed the ducks or spot wildlife.
📚 Leighton Buzzard Library – Free summer reading challenge, crafts, and story sessions.
🛝 Pages Park & Parson’s Close Rec – Great play areas and free splash zone (perfect for warm days!).
🚂 Leighton Buzzard Railway – Look out for discounted family days and special events, or go to Pages Park to watch the trains.
🛍️ Town events – A fun way to explore the town, keep an eye on Leighton-Linslade Town Council social media (also check out the local trails!)

Fun doesn’t have to cost a fortune – a nature scavenger hunt, baking together at home, or a family movie night can be just as magical ✨

If you're struggling financially, and not sure if you may be entitled to financial support, we’re here for you. Contact us for free, confidential support. 💬
