Recent research shows that 'the average UK 12 year old spends 29 hours on their smartphone per week', and the media is full of conversations about the potential benefits and harms that smartphones can have on young people. How do we help our young people to navigate ever developing tech in a healthy way? We'll be diving into the latest research, discussing the challenges of talking 'screen time' with teenagers, and discovering a path forward to help our children thrive in a digital world.

In a world with plenty of reasons to feel anxious, how can we best support the young people in our lives to positively understand and navigate feelings of anxiety? And how can we know the difference between being anxious and having an anxiety disorder?

We'll be bringing the latest research and hope to the conversation, drawing on over 10 years experience of supporting young people who have experienced self-harming.

With competing messages from the media, peers, social media and family and friends, how can we develop positive self-confidence and body image within our young people, and foster an atmosphere where they can thrive in healthy ways?
