Grateful to have had the opportunity to talk to @_AnnaDavis at the Evening Standard about our efforts to transform physical and mental wellbeing in London schools in partnership with @ImpUrbanHealth. For those who missed their copy, here's the article...

Loved to see the SATS mascots made by Y6 pupils @ReayPrimary. The Health Mentor Parm ran the activity to reduce anxiety and help them feel more at ease during exam stress. They look fab!!

Skipping Champions🏆🥇Well done to all the children who took part! 👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿 A whopping number of skips! #Thankyou Mr Williams our Health Mentor for organising it all & motivating the children!😄 @Evolve_Impact @EvolveRedhead #StStephensCommunity #StStephensSports #PhysicalActivity
Physical activity is such a fundamental part of our Health Mentor role in school for healthy minds as much as healthy bodies!
Schools getting ready for SATs please consider the evidence (images) before reducing PE and physical activity time! Consider programmes such as @tagtiv8 to enhance literacy & numeracy 👍. Kinaesthetic learning will always be the methodology of choice for young absorbing minds.

Shift work health risks affect families too.
At our recent network mtg a headteacher shared an eg from their work with @Evolve_Impact: identifying that for some children, poor sleep was contributing to diffs with learning & relationships. Awareness is first step to improvement.
💤1/5 people are shift workers, yet are often the 'forgotten
shift.'
🌙 We've been working with @TheLiminalSpace and @gsttnhs
to work out how employers can protect and promote the
health of shift workers.

Encouraging to hear from @ststephensSW8 @StMarks_Lambeth @henryfawcettpri @Christchurchsw9 about the value of health mentors for their children & families. Extra everyday contact means another chance for children to build positive relationships with trusted adults and each other.
At Evolve we believe early intervention is key. Our #HealthMentors build self-belief, develop resilience & nurture social & emotional skills. We know promoting positive wellbeing has long-term outcomes for mental health #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek #Wellbeing #edutwitter #education

Day 2 of the Health Mentor training Programme. Today's learning is focused on Leadership through storytelling. How can we as Health Mentors use Public Narrative within our practice to make a change to the lives of the children & young people we work with? @Evolve_Impact

"We need to move away from thinking about #PhysicalActivity as being separate from academic attainment & [start] seeing the two can be combined"
