World Mental Health Day - 10 October 2022

In the lead up to World Mental Health Day on 10 October, we have a whole host of resources and films on Into Film+ that can support you in bringing mental wellbeing awareness into the classroom.

Mental and emotional health within children and young people is an ongoing issue across the UK, and a topic that should always be prioritised in schools and other youth settings. Film can be a powerful medium to explore difficult subjects, understand other people's stories and experiences, and provoke discussion around complex issues.

We want educators to feel equipped to empower children and young people to be seen and heard, particularly when it comes to their mental wellbeing. That's where the films streaming on Into Film+ come in.
