Place2Be

Place2Be is a children and young people's mental health charity providing counselling, mental health support, and training in UK schools. Our tried and tested model is backed by research.

We believe that no child or young person should have to face mental health problems alone.

Every day, children and young people across the UK struggle with their mental health.

We are committed to helping children and young people with their mental health, and the need for our services grows daily. 1 in 5 children and young people experience mental health difficulties. Half of all mental health problems are established by age 14.
