Amanda Nwadukwe's Company Details
A.C.E. supports young people to improve their emotional/mental health. OurEmotional Health Practitioners mainly work with young people individually. Wealso run some groups and work with the family if it will support the progress ofthe young person. We do not have a set programme of work but will listen tothe young person, assess their needs, identify goals and support them toimprove their emotional health and build resilience.A.C.E. was founded in 2008 following a piece of research with vulnerableyoung people about their needs. A.C.E was designed by young people andyoung people continue to be involved in its development. In 2011 A.C.E.became a registered charity and has slowly grown over the years.At any time 1:10 young people will be experiencing poor emotional health.Any one can experience poor emotional health just like physical illness but thechance is increased with adverse childhood experiences.Many of the young people we work with fail to reach the criteria for specialistmental health services but are experiencing a lot of distress.
