Project Me - Quiz and Videos for young people's wellbeing 

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Brought to you by Platfform4YP, Project Me is an online space that offers you support for your everyday mental health and wellbeing.

It's somewhere for you to reflect on how you're feeling, read up on tips for looking after your wellbeing, and find information on where to reach out if you need more help.

We've got a variety of tools to help you through those times when you need some extra support.

All the content is self-led, meaning you can go through everything at your own pace.

Your wellbeing matters - so take some time for yourself.

What's Project Me?

Over the past 18 months, life has had many ups and downs. Things have been particularly challenging for young people, so if you are struggling, we want you to know that you are not on your own.

Project Me is an online programme for 13-25 year olds to help you through those times when you need some extra support for your wellbeing.

We'll take you through our wellbeing quiz - this will give you the chance to reflect on what you're doing to support your wellbeing right now, and what small changes you could make to feel better in specific areas of your life.

The programme is self-led, meaning you can go through it at your own pace. We also have lots of information on where you can find more support if you need it.

Take the quiz

Our wellbeing quiz is a simple way to help you see what areas of your life could do with some more self-care.

We look at areas such as positive relationships, mindfulness, motivation and how you can take small steps to improve the areas of your choice!

This is a great way for you to take steps towards living a more empowered, fulfilling life.

Check Your Thinking Cards - Anti-Racist Practice in Social Work/Safeguarding

# data[].attributes.body
Developed with WG, Researchers, Social Care Wales and a Steering Group - These cards and video resources were developed in order to inspire Social Workers and Practitioners to think about their safeguarding practice and the impact of racism and bias. The cards are designed to be able to be used in reflective practice.

These resources and materials have been developed from research and partnership work with young people, foster carers, and social care and allied professionals.
They are designed for use by all those working with and caring for young people. If that's you, regardless of your role you may find them useful.

They share messages from young people with experiences of exploitation and harm, about how they experience safeguarding and support. The messages are also from those working with and caring for young people, about support needed and some of the challenges involved in safeguarding.

All the resources are designed as reflective tools to help you 'check your thinking' about key issues in safeguarding young people from exploitation, harms and other abuses, such as: assessing and managing risk, responding to young people, multi-agency practice, the importance of language and child-centred approaches.

We have been developing tools and resources in Wales to help identify and engage young people at risk of Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) and Child Sexual Abuse (CSA).

Our work

Better Futures Cymru is a service that provides assessment and longer term therapeutic intervention services for children and young people with sexualised histories across Wales.

We know that building trust and establishing a positive relationship is crucial to any successful intervention. Research has shown that young people who are abused, exploited, or who engage in risky sexual behaviours often feel guilt and shame. They may feel defined by this behaviour - which affects their level of openness and willingness to engage.

We want to develop a trusting and non-judgemental relationship with the young person. From the start, we focus on problem free discussions and activities in order to establish a meaningful connection in which both participants feel valued and have worth in the relationship.

A high percentage of the children we work with have experienced significant trauma. That might be sexual abuse, physical abuse, emotional abuse, domestic abuse or neglect. Our work takes these factors into consideration, and includes therapeutic approaches and techniques to address the issues that may occur as a result of these experiences.

In supporting young people to process their past trauma, we are able to allow them to develop healthy romantic and sexual relationships in their future.
