The Lemonade Project
...for when life gives you lemons...
A range of interactive, engaging activities designed to be used by small groups of young people.
It covers six main chapters addressing many of the issues in the ‘Resilience Framework’, for example emotional literacy, self esteem and identity, and dealing with challenge.
A conversation aid which consists of suggested questions and prompts which can help get to the root of any problems a young person might be experiencing, as well as an informal risk assessment.
To empower confidence that you are not saying ‘the wrong thing’.
It also includes ideas for strategies that an adult may want to suggest to a young person to try and help them manage strong emotions.
An interactive resilience journal for young people. We believe that the best way this journal can be used is to allow the young person to take it way, use in their own time, and then meet back to discuss any issues that it might have raised in a safe space with a parent/teacher or trusted adult.
There is a section broaching the increasingly common issue of self-harm, with a simple explanation of why a person might be self-harming, how to break out of this negative cycle, and also how to help a friend who is self-harming.
It has not been designed to stay immaculate, so the messier it can get the better!
