  The Well-being and Resilience Toolkit supports you in bringing creative, engaging mental health activities into your youth work practice. This resource includes a 12-hour CPD training and 18 hands-on activities that use art, music, and creativity to promote emotional awareness, resilience, and well-being among young people.

  The CPD training is organised into six modules, each providing practical strategies for delivering well-being sessions with confidence. These modules also offer theoretical knowledge on youth mental health, trauma-informed care, and ethical youth work.

  The accompanying handbook provides 18 active learning activities grounded in creative, musical, and artistic approaches. Designed to help young people feel better in the moment and build long-term coping skills, the activities focus on emotional regulation, mindfulness, communication, resilience, self-worth, and peer support.

  We invite you to enroll by clicking on the text "Enroll me in this course" - available in the blue bar at the top of the screen.

  Enjoy your learning!
