Children are struggling with self-esteem as a result of the pandemic, a youth project manager says.

Adele Sutton said that now, more than ever, they are seeing the importance of supporting young people’s self-esteem, wellbeing, and relationships

"We are seeing schools inquiring more about our services, asking if we can come in and come in straight away," Ms Sutton added. Year 5 pupil Eden said: "After the workshop it made me feel that I'm not the only one who looks at things in a different way. I felt I wasn't alone in the things that I feel and the things that I do."

Head teacher Samantha Hodder said mental health was "massively" important and that schools must talk to children about how they are feeling."Even though there have been opportunities to interact with their classmates on screen... they have still been on their own, in their homes, they've missed their friends, and we've seen quite high anxiety.
