About Us
Why wellbeing?
Every child has feelings, but managing those feeling and using language to express them, requires skills that children need to learn and practise.
About Heads Up Kids
We create social and emotional wellbeing programmes that help children understand themselves, relate to others and develop practical skills to manage the ups and downs of life.
Practical resources
Our free resources make it easier to start useful conversations about feelings, relationships and positive mental health.
