Dealing with traumatic and challenging events

When young people experience something traumatic, like bereavement, bullying or a family crisis, it can take time for them to process their emotions.
 
That’s where adult guidance makes all the difference. This week’s #WakeUpWednesday guide shares practical tips for parents and carers to support loved ones through difficult experiences. From creating a sense of safety to recognising when professional help might be needed, this guide offers compassionate, actionable advice to help young people heal and move forward.
