Helping young people take charge of their mental wellbeing

Green Teens
Parent Hub

Promoting mental wellbeing in teens

Green Hub is a local community charity based in Milford, Witley & Godalming supporting teens (10-18) in Waverley, Surrey and NE Hampshire, who are facing social, emotional & mental health challenges. It’s called ‘social therapeutic horticulture’, and they come along to our Green Teens programme for a couple of hours each week for 12 weeks, working in one of our local Green Hub gardens, whatever the weather. 

The idea is to teach them strategies that they can use for the rest of their lives, based on the ‘5 ways to wellbeing’. It’s a really powerful approach and we are so proud of the stories we hear from teenagers and their parents. We also support parents with our monthly Parent Hub and other activities. 

 

“Our daughter is back at school, full of confidence and back to her bubbly happy self.  She’s absolutely transformed and we feel like we have got our daughter back.”

“He finds it really difficult making friends and going into school, you can’t imagine how hard it is to get him to go and how heart breaking it is to watch him. He comes home from Green Hub so happy, always saying it’s never long enough. He loves it more than you can imagine and it’s a lifeline for us as parents – we really need this service.”
 
  • Our weekly Green Teens programme offers social and therapeutic gardening to stressed, anxious and neuro-diverse teens, giving them the chance to experience the calming effect of nature, benefiting their mental wellbeing.
  • Each month we run Parent Hub: a session to help parents supporting a child with mental health challenges.
  • Our FREE Life Skills for Teens programme is an 8-week online course to support teens with their mental wellbeing.
  • We deliver valuable FREE resources and advice to parents and teens, via our website Online Help.
