Update from Beam

With the restrictions easing, we thought it would be useful to update as to how Shropshire Telford & Wrekin Beam will be operating.

We do not have any plans to re-open as a drop-in service currently.  We will continue to offer telephone call backs as well as virtual face to face appointments.  All support should be requested via the website. https://www.childrenssociety.org.uk//beamshropshire

You may be aware we are offering limited face to face appointments from our Wellington venue.  These are strictly on an appointment-only basis.  As you can imagine, these are in high-demand given the limited slots we have, particularly the after-school appointments.  To ensure as many face to face sessions can be offered as possible, we will be booking appointments during school time.

Primary Schools – Y6 transitions offer
We are offering one-off face to face workshops for Y6 pupils who are concerned about their transition to secondary school.  If your school is interested in booking this, please get in touch ASAP.  Please note that this is only available to those schools who are not supported by the Bee U Mental Health School Support Team.

Workshops for parents/carers

We are pleased to let you know we are now offering virtual sessions for parents & carers around common emotional well-being topics.  These sessions aim to help parents & carers support their young people at home.  The sessions are detailed below, and do not need to be booked.  Please share with those you feel may benefit.
