Promoting mental wellbeing in teens
Green Hub is a local community charity based in Milford & Godalming supporting teens in Surrey (aged 10-18) who are facing social, emotional & mental health challenges: We do this via our social therapeutic garden programme – Green Teens – which focuses on mental wellbeing, as well as supporting parents with our monthly Parent Hub and other activities.
We started the project in July 2021, and have already made a significant impact in the work that we do.
Our weekly Green Teens programme offers social and therapeutic gardening to stressed, anxious and neuro-diverse teens, giving them the chance to experience the calming effect of nature, benefiting their mental wellbeing. The programme runs SIX session options across our THREE locations.
- Each month we run Parent Hub: a session to help parents supporting a child with SEMH challenges.
- Our FREE Life Skills for Teens programme is an 8-week online course to support teens with their mental wellbeing.
- We deliver valuable FREE resources and advice to parents and teens, via our website Online Help.
