As a result, we will use the monies to train and pay facilitators to provide structured groups and programmes to address the mental health needs of children and young people within Oxfordshire since the pandemic. Groups will be planned for in advance and will form part of the Nai’s House Activity Timetable with no end date and will be the Bereavement Support Group and Suicidal Ideation Group. The following are planned and structured programmes or workshops that have been created to be delivered over a set amount of time and have clear objectives. These programmes will incorporate educational, practical and supportive elements. They will run separately to the Nai’s House activity timetable and have a start and end date and are the Survivors of Suicide Attempt, Surviving Life (incl resilience and self harm and suicide prevention workshop) Self Harm and Suicide Prevention Workshop and Youth Bereavement Support Programme. These groups and programmes will be benefit a significant number of individuals within the Oxfordshire area. In fact we expect the numbers to be in excess of 910. It will enable those who have struggled with the pandemic to lessen the impact by having likeminded individuals to share feelings, emotions and behaviours with, whilst learning and coping mechanisms. When examining the cost/ benefit ratio we consider this to be wholly proportionate to the overall benefit.
National Lottery Community Fund - EMO18+ (expanding emotional support for over 18s)
£9,814	22/10/2021	The funding will be used to provide suicide prevention and emotional support to young adults. The project aims to improve the beneficiaries mental wellbeing by building their confidence resilience and sense of self-worth.
