A strong family has many significant implications for the health and well-being of both adults and children. Studies have shown that people live longer, have less stress, and are more financially stable in a healthy family environment where both parents are present, share the responsibility of the household, and raise the children.

We are pleased to be supporting this exciting and innovative project, along with BBC Children in Need an Impact on Urban Health. Delivered by The Children's Society, Children First and MACS Supporting Children & Young People, the Space to Grow programme will seek to address the mental health crisis in children and young people, and aims to change lives across the UK. By focussing on early intervention and prevention, and improving the support systems available, young people will be able to access practical, timely help when they need it most.
Every childhood is special. It’s a time to learn and grow, to make friends, to discover. But there are challenges, big and small. From bullying and racism at school, to abuse, to problems at home, the pressures can quickly start to build up. Through Space to grow we, Children First, and MACS are working in partnership to encourage innovative solutions for targeted early support and build a body of evidence that we can use, as a sector, to improve the systems around young people so that they can get the right support at the right time. Space to grow is made possible by our incredible funding partners: BBC Children in Need, The Health Foundation, and Impact on Urban Health. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/e-Ff2mNe
