POSITIVE PATHWAYS

Building Resilience for the Future

Creating positive environments and strategies to support young people with additional needs to flourish

It is easier to build stronger children than to repair broken adults” – Frederick Douglas

We work collaboratively, predominantly across the South of England, with Schools, Colleges, families, young people and other organisations, to support strategies that will promote meaningful outcomes for young people with additional needs.  We offer a range of interventions and services – based on Positive Psychology, and a solution focused mind-set. A strength based approach is always taken – as opposed to a deficit model.
