Open Minds has become Time OutThe name "Open Minds" has been adopted for the overall programme that includes all the various projects that support emotional wellbeing in children and young people, so we are changing our name to avoid confusion and what we've been doing under the Open Minds name is becoming part of Time Out.
Time Out, new from Healthy Minds, gives young people aged 13-19 access to a range of activities such as arts and crafts, sports and outdoors or singing and drama. Young people have been the driving force behind a project designed to help you “find your thing” in order to feel good and stay well.
Time Out links up organisations across Calderdale who work with young people, for example Orange Box, The Artworks, Calderdale College and Mixenden Activity Centre. Young people can access the website and see at a glance what’s on offer, plus there’s a network of support if they need it. Time Out also runs courses and workshops, both in schools and outside of school hours, on topics relating to emotional wellbeing, such as stress, self-harm and self-esteem. Time Out is a self-referral scheme but we’re happy for organisations to contact us on a young person’s behalf, with their consent. There is also a range of volunteering opportunities for young people, from helping with activities to sitting on the panel to becoming a Time Out rep. We’d love to hear from organisations who would like to become a Time Out partner and young people who are interested in taking part. |
