Virtually Minded (360G-CR-4164723)

The extension to the Virtually Minded project will develop the delivery method to better engage and support 10-12 year olds from the Falcon Lodge estate, Sutton Coldfield and Conker Island estate, Kingstanding. A mobile youth bus will visit the estates and weekly sessions will encourage small groups of young men to participate in range of activities. The young men will be supported to better understand mental health, and encouraged to develop their own social media and Comic-Con campaign helping them to develop a range of practical and social skills. A grant will support the costs of youth workers, consultation and delivery, plus a contribution to management and organisational overheads.
