Anxiety in children and young people is on the increase. Currently, 1 in 6 suffers from debilitating anxiety. Helen's extremely engaging and interactive talk will teach pupils about anxiety and a growth mindset through the challenge, they will learn some strategies for overcoming anxiety to step out of their comfort zone. This talk promotes a can-do attitude that minimises anxious thoughts and feelings, it encourages a love of challenge. This talk is particularly useful for years 10 & 11 as they prepare for their GCSEs.
