Thank you so much for the messages, support , cards etc we recieve . It really is appreciated 🙏.

We know how much the 1:1’s NHS adult referral blocks have made a difference to individuals with chronic illnesses / long term conditions . Please leave us a review as it help funders see the difference we are making in the Carrick community and surrounding villages .

We are constantly working away behind the scenes to source future funding and our go to “ centre family” who once volunteered with us have gone on to do amazing things in their local communities , returned to work , started their own charities and volunteer with organisations across the county.

We are so pleased by their success , but often we get asked to attend events , have stalls , promote what we do etc and it’s kinda tough as we are busy doing the day to day grind . If anyone is feeling like they would like to give something back occasionally ( no commitment) just DM us as we are growing , networking and reaching many organisations across South Ayrshire and beyond that we could collaborate with .

We were at an awesome awards ceremony today that we were a finalist at the su***de prevention awards and we met many great local organisations that we were not even aware of. Although we didn’t win it was an honour to be a finalist in such an amazing array of awesome charities and organisations 💫💕.

A school in Baltimore chose to address student behavior not with punishment, but with mindfulness and mediation. By removing detention and replacing it with a reflective practice, they created a space where children could process emotions instead of being excluded. The results were remarkable—ten years without suspensions.

This approach highlights the power of empathy in education. Rather than viewing mistakes as disruptions to be penalized, teachers turned them into opportunities for growth and self-awareness. Students learned responsibility and respect through guided reflection, not fear.

Education becomes far more effective when it nurtures the whole child. Academic lessons are important, but emotional resilience and interpersonal understanding shape a person’s life just as deeply. This model proves that compassionate strategies can produce long-lasting behavioral change.

What happened in Baltimore challenges traditional notions of discipline. It shows that when children are given the tools to understand themselves, they rise to the occasion. Such practices may pave the way for a generation that values peace, reflection, and community connection over conflict. 💡🤝

Great morning at the wellbeing group. Claire kindly offered taster sessions of Hopi ear candling which quite a few of us took up and loved, and we also welcomed Mandy from Stepping stones who was on hand to offer advice on all aspects of family life and support available. Thank you all for joining us. Mandy will be back in on October 31st and happy to have a relaxed chat with anyone who would like to explore the support available for them and their families

For the bravest children that you will never meet in the playground….

While everyone celebrates their kids heading back to school, sharing pictures of their first week (which is lovely to see), this week I’m holding space for the THOUSANDS of children and teens who can’t walk through those doors.

Let’s hold space this week for…

•The child who can’t attend because anxiety twists their stomach and makes them feel sick, manifesting physically and mentally through panic attacks, insomnia, and sheer dread of school.

•The child overwhelmed by sensory overload, the every bell, shout, crowded corridor, and bright light sending their body into fight or flight

•The child screaming at the school gate, arms clinging to their parent, terrified and desperate to stay home

•The child stuck in limbo with an inappropriate school in their EHCP, waiting over a year while appeals drag on.

•The child desperate to be in school but kept home by unknown SEN/EBSA, longing to be with friends

•The child permanently excluded for behaviours that were really signs of unmet need, punished for being themselves.

•The child waiting years for an assessment before school will acknowledge their needs (unlawful).

•The child masking all day, only to collapse into meltdowns when they get home.

•To the teens longing for connection and learning, blocked by invisible barriers they can’t quiteexplain.

•To the teens left without any school, simply because no setting can support them properly.

•To the Teens with severely low attendance due to poor mental health, navigating pain no one can see.

•To the parents/ carers who have lost jobs, giving everything to support their children through this

•To the parents and carers who turned to home education, feeling it was the only way to protect their child and prevent them from being penalised.

•To the Parents accused of “mollycoddling” for protecting the one they love.

• To the kids who are unable to attend school due to major health issues

These persistently absent children and teens are also incredibly brave and they are deserving of everything! I’ve witnessed this both professionally, and with my own child.

Bridget Phillipson, regarding your attendance comments, perhaps try sitting with the parents living this reality before you dare to pass judgment!
