Animated resources to support the wellbeing of children and young people. This collection of short animations were commissioned by Kazzum Arts and Tower Hamlets council to support the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people.
These resources were created in response to the the Covid-19 pandemic and the impact of social distancing on the CYP at London East Alternative Provision (Tower Hamlets’ PRU) for those excluded from mainstream secondary education. The animations are also complemented by a series of online creative activities and colouring-in books to support the young people on the programme.
Each animation explores one of 4 broad themes including: Mindfulness, Relationships, Movement and Relaxation. The activities they model are trauma-informed; supporting social engagement, a well balanced autonomic nervous system and playful approach to wellbeing.
The PRU staff members have provided the voiceovers for the animations, building a sense of creative connection and relationship, at a time of social distancing. The characters reflect the diversity of the setting and encourage everyone to take part in a wellbeing journey.
