Join us on Youth Mental Health Day for a morning breakfast event full of insightful discussions and a refreshing walk!
The event kicks off at Bonded Agency HQ with an in person talk from the CEO of Youth Focus NE, David McCreedy, who will talk about the work of Youth Focus North East, a brilliant local charity that’s making a real difference to young people’s lives across our region.
Bonded are partnering with Youth Focus NE, to tackle to the issue of youth loneliness.
Loneliness is one of the biggest challenges facing young people today. Research from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy shows that 72% of 16–25-year-olds feel loneliness is having a negative impact on their mental health.
That’s a staggering number, and it’s why we’ve created our own ‘Route 72 Challenge’ to help shine a light on the issue.
Our Managing Director, Steve Underwood, will talk more about Bonded’s work in partnership with Youth Focus NE and our Route 72 Challenge.
To fuel your morning, we’ll be serving deliciously festive breakfast bites courtesy of French Oven, before we embark on a joyful walk to the iconic Swing Bridge. Our morning will conclude with a group photo to commemorate the experience.
