Lilyjo Project in School Talking About Mental Health

Students aged from 11 to 18 enjoyed meeting the team from the Lilyjo Project during workshops which explored different mental health issues and included some amazing singing and dancing.

Lilyjo herself talked about her background and how she has embraced being able to be in front of large numbers of young people rather than counselling individuals.  Her colleague Moses also shared his story of how he became aware of his depression and the steps he still takes to overcome his anxieties which allow him to pursue his first love of dancing.

Students' reaction was extremely positive and they took away very valuable information.
