**We use an array of therapeutic approaches** to support healing and wellbeing and to help young people understand their experiences and to find alternative ways of expressing hurt, sadness, anger, and frustration.

**Charity**:
We have been coordinating charitable projects in other countries for the last few years. Some of our staff have had a **once-in-a-lifetime opportunity** to volunteer with all expenses paid. These charities are supporting disadvantaged children to gain an education.

Our first project was in Brazil in 2021 where we gave local children English lessons. This is something we are keen to promote to our employees who may wish to get involved.
