The Beano has partnered with children’s mental health charity Place2Be to help young children build better mental health. The partnership brings together Beano’s 85 years of expertise entertaining children through its well-known comics and Place2Be’s 30 years of experience delivering mental health support in schools across the UK. Together, they aim to provide children and families with advice on how to look after their mental health and where to turn for additional support. In their first collaboration, Beano and Place2Be have created a “top tips for children” resource for Children’s Mental Health Week in February 2024. This resource includes peer-to-peer advice on looking after your mental health, written by primary age children. Tips include “remember you are not alone – everyone goes through tough times” and “go outside and get some exercise to make yourself feel stronger” alongside much loved Beano characters. Read more.
