Welcome to the new South Kent Mind website – Please bear with us whilst changes are completed.
Working with children and young people is incredibly important to improving mental health at an earlier age and to ensuring we can prevent mental ill health in a young person’s life. Without the work we do, many young people would not have access to vital mental health awareness and support.
Are you a school that is looking to offer your students with mental health awareness or a one-off activity? See how your school can get involved!





South Kent Mind have been working in schools with children and young people regularly over the past few years, delivering a range of projects, activities, and workshops. As a local charity, we have specialised in addressing the needs of children and young people growing up in the coastal areas of South Kent.
If you are interested in booking the above, or a completely different way of working together, please do get in contact with us today to discuss ways we can best support your students.
