What is it?

Our Emotional Health & Wellbeing Programme is a way for us to support children in Sandwell with their mental health and emotional wellbeing through therapies.

What do we do?

We regularly visit schools all around Sandwell for 6 sessions taking place over the same number of weeks. The children (selected by the school) will each take part in Lego, music and art therapy sessions.

What is the impact?

As a result of the programme we’ve found that children are able to express themselves and feel more comfortable in sharing anything that may be upsetting them.

Overall children see a positive upturn in their mental health.

At 4 Community Trust we do plenty of fundraising and we're now working with the Soccerpots app to not only benefit us, but to benefit all of you too!

Soccerpots is a football-related app that allows groups to raise a jackpot until someone eventually wins the big money prize by correctly predicting all 6 results of the chosen matches that weekend Within our group you pay a weekly £3 fee, which is split between the jackpot and the charity then predict away!

We recently had someone in our group win a massive jackpot of £124!!!

If you'd like to join our group and potentially be our next big winner, you can download the Soccerpots app from the app store, enter the code 'BEPQDD' into the join league section and predict away
