Let’s tackle anxiety together!

With the right support, children and young people with additional needs can learn to manage high levels of anxiety and reach their full potential.

SNAP’s specialist talks, counselling sessions and bespoke activity sessions provide strategies to reduce stress and isolation and are just one of the many ways we’re supporting families across Essex.

SNAP’s Awareness Week is back this June with a focus on helping our children and young people with additional needs to build resilience to the high levels of anxiety they can face on a daily basis.

There are a variety of activities and ideas for you to get involved with throughout our special week. Let’s tackle anxiety together!

There’s lots of great ways to get involved in supporting and raising awareness of SNAP

Week of 22nd – 29th June 2020 – Taking place everywhere!

We hope you, your family and friends will support this extra special addition to the SNAP calendar. Here’s a few ideas we have up our sleeves…
