Children’s Mental Health Week

It’s Place2Be’s Children’s Mental Health Week, taking place during the week beginning 9th February. As a safe and welcoming space for young people, it’s incredibly important to us that we reach out, start conversations, and remind young people that support is always available. 

Throughout Mental Health Week, we will be airing episodes of 300 Seconds every day on Ocean Youth Radio. 

300 Seconds is an award-winning mental health podcast created by young people, for young people. Each episode is just five minutes long and focuses on destigmatising mental health, encouraging honest conversations and helping young people feel heard and understood. 

Across its three series, 300 Seconds explores a wide range of topics, including anxiety, self-harm, identity, confidence, and wellbeing, all shared through real voices and lived experiences. 

This Children’s mental health week, We will be Airing 300 Seconds on Ocean Youth Daily Monday 9th, Tuesday 10th, Wednesday 11th February at 6pm.

In addition to the daily episodes, we will also be broadcasting a special one-hour Show celebrating 300 Seconds on Sunday 15th February at 5pm, featuring our favourite moments from across the series, reflections on the impact of the podcast, and highlights from some of the most powerful conversations shared by young people. 

 

We want young people to know: you are not alone, and there is always someone you can talk to. Below is a list of trusted support services available to young people in Torbay and across England: 

 

If you or someone you know is struggling, reaching out can be the first step — support is there, and your voice matters.
