News, events and schools' information for families across Bath and West Wiltshire

Bath Mind has announced the launch of its new Teen Wellbeing Group, starting on Wednesday 5 June. This free group is open to children aged 13-18 who live in Bath and North East Somerset.

The weekly sessions will take place at Bath Mind’s Monksdale Road allotments in Bath from 3:30pm to 5:30pm, and participants are welcome to drop in at any time during the session.

The Teen Wellbeing Group offers a variety of activities designed to help young people relax and connect with nature. Activities include creative expression, mindful exercises and gardening. The aim of the group is to provide a supportive environment where young people can take a break from their daily stresses, engage with their peers, and boost their wellbeing and self-confidence.

Hannah Lees, Bath Mind’s Youth Engagement Worker, says, “Mental health matters at every age. Every one of us has mental health. Our new Teen Wellbeing Group gives young people aged 13 to 18 a space and time to relax and spend time in nature, engaging and connecting.”
