Children’s mental health week is coming up in February and we as a school are planning to do our bit to help support children’s mental health and wellbeing across the country by walking the Yorkshire Three Peaks. The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is 24-miles (38.6km) round trip route, and includes 1585m (5200ft) of ascent within 12 hours. We are taking on this challenge to raise money for Young Minds, a charity that helps support children’s mental health and wellbeing! With children’s mental health issues becoming more prominent, we have decided to do our bit by ensuring children around the country are getting the help and the support they need for their mental health and wellbeing.
