If we dip into our creative and artistic resources, we’re able to feel a sense of fulfilment. Taking this active step means putting our best foot forward to care for our own wellbeing and health. Above all, we can help others by looking after ourselves and investing time and effort into our wellbeing.

With the ever growing rise in complex mental health needs among young people, youth workers need the tools for resilience.

By exploring our own creative health and wellbeing, we can teach and encourage others with confidence and trust.  

To support that process, Oxfordshire Youth has partnered with The Prudence Trust to offer a pioneering wellbeing programme. Our Youth Practitioner Wellbeing Programme is fully focused on developing and uplifting individuals, their organisations and the young people engaged with them. It’s a priority for us to ensure that this course is fully funded. With participants receiving over £2000 of training for free, equity and access to opportunities is at the top of our priorities. Youth workers can take part in wellbeing sessions and engage in personal development, peer-to-peer networking and many more enriching activities.

You can find out more about it here and to join us, sign up to be part of the next course. Give yourself the gift of time to explore, connect and grow. If you’d like to discuss any aspect of the programme, please contact Nataliia Turban, Oxfordshire Youth’s Youth Sector Wellbeing Coordinator by emailing nataliia.turban@oxy.mediasitesvr1.co.uk.
