💛 Wearing Yellow for Mental Health Day
Today we’re wearing yellow to shine a light on mental health and to celebrate the incredible work being done by charities across our community to make sure that those in need get the support they need when they need it most.
At Focus, we see the difference that support can make every day.
This is what 14 year old Alex said about how his counselling helped him after the news of his brother’s terminal illness:
“These sessions are a needed outlet for my feelings. The counsellor helped me feel calmer. His kindness allowed me to share things I never thought I could trust anyone else with. Thank you, Focus.”
We listen, we support, and we help young people, adults, couples and families find their way back to themselves.

Huge congrats to on their first ever Charity Awards!

Such a fantastic celebration of the caring heart of Bath and the amazing people & organisations who make this city shine. ✨
Loved hearing Jennifer Skellett’s reminder that “charity” means “love of your fellow human beings”.

There was definitely a lot of love and mutual appreciation in that room!

💛 It’s Youth Mental Health Day — the perfect time to thank our amazing CYP counsellors & volunteers.
At Focus, we run free Drop-In Cafés for 13–19 year olds — safe, informal spaces where young people can hang out, talk, and feel supported on their way home from school. They are run in partnership with and .good.heart.cafe 🌱✨
In the past year, 40 young people in crisis came through our doors at The Good Heart Café. 80% went on to receive 10+ sessions of funded counselling. 💬💛
Here’s what one young person shared:
“I came to Focus feeling broken and lost… After my sessions I doubt myself less and have even enrolled on a new college course.” 🌟
This is why we do what we do. Together, we can create safe spaces and brighter futures for young people. 💛🌿

It was a privilege to sit on the expert panel, sharing the lived reality of young people’s mental health in Frome. One clear outcome? The need for a Parent Support Group. This would be a safe, informal space for parents and carers to share struggles, worries, and solutions.
Because solutions are rarely found in isolation: they’re built together.
💛 Love is not weakness — it’s strength in action.
Huge thanks to Lisa Merryweather-Millard, , , Anita Collier, and , Anna Sabine MP for dedicating a whole day to raising awareness and exploring real solutions for children & young people’s mental health.
