BBC Children in Need's A Million & Me projects: Supporting 8-13 year olds' mental health
https://www.centreformentalhealth.org.uk/publications/everyday-magic 
Programme aimed to address this gap in provision and improve the emotional health of children under 14 - the age by which half of mental health difficulties begin to emerge. Centre for Mental Health is working with A Million & Me to extract learning from the projects funded by the programme. Everyday magic presents the insights gathered from the first two years of the programme, alongside evidence on the mental health of children aged 8-13, and highlights the inequalities that need to be addressed to ensure all children are supported.
