Policy Alignment
Our work is designed to complement existing education, wellbeing, safeguarding, and workforce frameworks, providing practical, preventative skills that support individuals, teams, and systems.
Welsh Government Priorities & How We Support Them
Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2025–2035 (Wales)

How our programmes support this:
​
- Rise UP and Ready UP support early intervention by equipping young people with emotional regulation, confidence, and resilience skills
- Connect UP and corporate training strengthen workforce wellbeing and performance
- All programmes build mental wellbeing literacy rather than relying on reactive support
Whole-School Approach to Emotional & Mental Wellbeing (Statutory Guidance)
Schools in Wales are expected to embed wellbeing across learners, staff, leadership, families, and the wider community.

- Connect UP supports staff wellbeing, communication, and psychologically safe environments
- Parent and staff workshops reinforce shared language and consistency
Learners’ Wellbeing, Equity & Inclusion (Curriculum for Wales)
Welsh education policy recognises wellbeing as foundational to learning, inclusion, and long-term outcomes.

​

Workplace Mental Health & Resilience (UK & Wales Context)
Evidence consistently shows that poor mental wellbeing impacts productivity, sickness absence, staff retention, and organisational culture.
