BeeWell – Greater Manchester

About this project

The BeeWell programme aims to improve the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people across Greater Manchester. It began in Autumn 2021 and is a collaboration between a number of agencies, the University of Manchester and the Anna Freud Centre, with support from philanthropist David Gregson. Working with 150 young people across schools in Manchester, they have co-developed a wellbeing survey for secondary school pupils, which has had more than 40,000 responses in its first year. Alongside this the project has developed a dashboard to easily visualise data at the neighbourhood level to help professionals and agencies in delivering a tailored and informed response to local issues. The project also provides information for those at school, and school leavers, and arranges a number of promotions and events. The project is due to run for at least three years, with the aim of providing support and informing policy.
