NESSie - Expert Impact

Rachel Lambie,

NESSie

Met with Carrie Longton

NESSie support positive mental health of children and young people, aged between 0 and 25 years. They achieve their aims through three key ways:

1-1 and group arts therapies for children and young people;
Training and supervision for professionals; and
Workshops and other support services for parents and carers.

NESSie simplifies access to arts therapies, counselling, support and training to enable children, young people and their families to thrive. They work through their partnerships in local schools, county councils and community organisations across Hertfordshire and its surrounding counties. In addition, parents are able to reach out to us directly. Their Mental Health Leads Training is quality assured by the UK Department of Education.

We are solely impact driven and re-invest more than 50% of our profits back into our enterprise to help us achieve our social-impact goals.
