IN1 About the Space to grow Programme Space to grow is a nationwide partnership between The Children's Society in England and Wales, Children First in Scotland, and MACS in Northern Ireland. The programme is funded by a £1 million grant from funding partners BBC Children in Need, The Health Foundation, and Impact on Urban Health, their single biggest award through an open funding programme, called the 'Million and Me Award'. To amplify and increase our impact and to reach as many children as possible, The Children's Society is investing a further £1million meaning we have £2million over the next two years to truly change the lives of children. The funding is going to create a early support programme which will support children aged 8 - 13 years-old across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland with a strong focus on those children and families who are not represented in emotional health and well being and mental health services. Our ambition is to support children and their families as early as possible to help prevent children developing and experiencing and mental health difficulties as they become teenagers. The programme will offer one-to-one time-limited wellbeing interventions to children and their families. We will utilise solution-focussed approaches to provide children and their families with a toolbox of strategies to help support the child's emotional health and wellbeing and manage their feelings. The direct work with children and families will be supported by digital interventions, through the use of our own wellbeing app “Me Time”.
