stem4, the Wimbledon based teenage mental health charity, saw an opportunity to give a new lease of life and purpose to two disused, heritage BT telephone boxes, and embarked on their adoption two years ago.
The phone boxes will house stem4’s free resources which support young people’s mental health, together with signposts to help. The charity will also host community events at various times in the year, providing fun opportunities for young people to access a free wellbeing check.
stem4 hopes that these valuable assets will provide an opportunity for the community to have a moment to share in important conversations about mental health.
We are delighted to announce that these iconic assets, beautifully restored and situated in the heart of Wimbledon Village, are to be unveiled on the 10th of October on World Mental Health Day 2023.
Dr Nihara Krause, Consultant Clinical Psychologist and stem4 CEO and Founder ‘stem4 are thrilled to be able to continue to provide another opportunity for establishing strong community connections to enhance and support the mental health of children and young people. Our connections are the strongest resilience factors, providing not only mental health and wellbeing protection but have also been linked with positive physical health benefits. We are looking forward to hosting events throughout the year to engage young people in enhancing their wellbeing and providing opportunity for starting meaningful conversations with the adults in their lives’
