Start Now website
Start Now
Start Now is the website created by young people in Cornwall to support all young people in Cornwall with your well being.
The young people who worked on the website told us that they wanted the site to help all young people to know:
- how to look after your own well being
- that 'it's OK not to be OK'
- how to recognise when you, or your friends, need help
- how to get good information and how to ask for help
- that the adults around them are there to listen and support.
On the site you’ll find:
- The fab FREE Connect Card
- FREE stuff
- FUN stuff
- Well being Stuff
You can get Connect Cards from:
- school
- libraries
- youth clubs and drop ins
- by sending us your address and we'll pop one in the post
2. Your very own Well being Toolkit and Well being & Resilience Action Plan ideas
Create your own action plan toolkit online or download a booklet to complete.
3. Are YOU a Resilience Hero?
Find out when you play the brilliant new game created especially for young people in Cornwall.
You are a young person who has just arrived in Frogsmouth: a fictional town on the coast of Cornwall.
Armed with the Resilience Framework and aided by your talking dog, you spend a year making new friends, rising to meet new challenges and discovering your personal strengths as you become the ultimate Resilience Hero!
