Support Hub
Because sometimes we need a little support - and that's OK.
Find a list of useful organisations that can help you below.
A trusted adult, teacher or parent
The first place to visit for support should always be a responsible and trusted adult in your life. Whether that is a parent, teacher, guardian, family member or someone in your community - please consider speaking to them first.
It is important to remember that you are not alone and there is support out there. Even in your school there may be services and help that you are not aware of. Please ask.
Please note: Empathy Studios and our team are only able to signpost organisations and services and cannot respond personally to individual requests.
Support Organisations

Young Minds gives young people tools to take care of their mental health. Their website has lots of advice and tips on what to do if you're finding it hard to cope with your feelings. They also help parents and adults who work with young people so they can be the best support possible.

They offer free, confidential support through a national helpline, online tools, and local services to help you deal with the tough feelings that come with losing someone. They also have short, helpful videos, like this one on understanding grief & how to manage it.
