Trapped in Zone One is hosting the Good for Girls programme of a second year in Tower Hamlets with London Youth, supporting young females to access relevant, holistic early intervention mental health support in trusted community spaces. This includes support and guidance from trained youth professionals, and opportunities to develop relationships, skills, and tools to maintain positive mental health. Young females get support earlier, meaning fewer require referral to specialist services.

The Good for Girls programme will help to create a mental health hub with us and extend the support for young females outside of school, with trained youth professionals who are able to create safe spaces where young females feel able to talk about their mental health and learn tools to manage their wellbeing.

Our programme will run from January to August 2022 providing weekly creative and sports provision, supporting young females aged 10-14, promoting positive mental health and challenge stigma.

They will:

• access free activities that promotes wellbeing

• discuss emotional wellbeing and issues they care about

• take leadership to promote wellbeing in their communities.

Good for Girls programme also include a residential from 20-22 May 2022, where a small number of young females will take part in activities that help them become ‘Wellbeing Ambassadors’ for our organisation. These ambassadors will lead a social action project between June-August 2022 to promote positive mental health and wellbeing in Tower Hamlets.

Learnings from Good for Girls 2021:

“Although mental health terms are in common use; for example depression, anxiety, stress etc, it was felt that some young people were unable to differentiate between mental health disorders and common feelings that all people (in particular adolescents’) face”.

With 75% of mental health problems becoming established by age 24, it’s vital to support young people at an early age. All too often, access to mental health support is limited.

To register a young person to the programme, parents and guardians need to complete the registration form here.
