Our approach

The session is delivered by highly skilled professionals using a trauma-informed, youth-centered approach to ensure a safe, inclusive environment for all.

You can meet our Leaders here

Through group discussion, real-life scenarios, and guided reflection, young people explore the 10 Signs and develop tools for their everyday lives. Co-designed with young people to reflect their lived experiences, the content is relevant, accessible, and impactful.

Impact of our 10 signs programme*:

“I’ve learned that if you are in an unhealthy relationship, you should leave it. And if you are in a healthy relationship, continue it and build it more. I enjoyed that we all worked together and that we built a better relationship in the group.” – Year 5 pupil, Reach Academy

“A lot of the conversations we have with Year 6s are centred around relationships and the anxieties they have about going into Year 7. LMK have helped them realise today that healthy relationships are key to their mental health.” – Teacher, Riversdale Primary School, February 2025
