PowERing PositivE MINDS
Powering Positive Minds is an eight-week programme from Power Through Sport and MIND Newcastle, supporting young people aged 14–16 who may be struggling with their mental wellbeing, alongside their parents or carers.
The programme offers a positive, practical way to build confidence, strengthen connections and explore wellbeing—including for young people waiting for professional support who want to take proactive steps in the meantime.
Our dual-track approach combines classroom discussions with physical activity, giving young people and parents or carers opportunities to learn and take part. While parents or carers join classroom sessions exploring mental health and wellbeing topics, young people get active, try something different and develop new skills.
Each two-hour session includes:
-
15 minutes: A welcoming check-in and snack.
-
45 minutes: Classroom learning and discussion.
-
45 minutes: Physical activity in the sports hall.
-
15 minutes: A shared debrief to reflect on the session.
Classroom and activity sessions run alongside one another, with groups rotating between the two elements. This creates space for learning, movement and conversations that families can build on at home.
