Tellmi have co-created, with students from The Bulmershe School, a short film for Mental Health Awareness Week called 'Life is tough but we move' The theme is Movement: Moving more for our mental health and would be great if it can be shared during form time or assemblies
Parents and guardians often have questions about digital mental health support and want to be sure their children are safe when accessing services like Tellmi.
To help address these common concerns and provide clarity on how Tellmi works, we have created a new digital booklet, 'What is Tellmi? Information for Parents/Guardians'.
This resource is designed to help parents understand the safety measures, moderation processes, and benefits of Tellmi's anonymous peer support service. To make sharing this information easy for you, we have developed a short blurb for your school newsletters, website, or other parent communications. This blurb includes a direct link to the online version of the booklet.
We would be grateful if you could share this information with the parents and guardians in your school community.
If you or any parents/guardians have further questions about the booklet or the Tellmi service, please do not hesitate to get in contact.
