Who remembers being outdoors building dens, having pretend picnics or playing in mud? Playing outside is great for children’s health but we know that these types of outdoor play experiences are declining.
During Childrens Mental Health Week everyone can play a part in helping our children to be healthy on the inside and outside.
Did you know play can help improve children’s physical and mental wellbeing, build resilience and gain social and emotional health.
What is the SOFT Project?
The SOFT Project (Supporting Our Families Together) is a five-year school and community family programme funded by the Big Lottery’s Reaching Out Supporting Families fund. The Speedwell Trust is the lead partner.
SOFT brings children and young people together. The project works with primary and post primary and nursery schools from all sectors across Cookstown and the surrounding area. SOFT widen the network of support for children, young people and their families by co-operating with 13 additional organisations across the community and statutory sectors.
