Birmingham Family Wellbeing Trail – Happy Confident Kids

Right in the heart of the city, you can step onto the canal and feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere within two minutes. It’s a peaceful escape while you’re out and about. Laura and I stepped out with our families to map our out first Family Wellbeing Trail for the Canal & River Trust.

It was great to be on the waterside in the middle of the City Centre, and notice the immediate relaxing impact as soon as we stepped on the waterside.

Retrain Your Brain to Look for Joy

Glimmers are the tiny moments of joy, warmth, or connection that are easy to miss — but when you start noticing them, everything changes.

Since I started noticing Glimmers, my whole perspective has shifted. It's a game changer!

— Lisa, Teacher & Parent

Nice to feel valued and supported as an individual. We often miss out our own care in the struggle to set up all the many school and group sessions that we run throughout the year.
