Promoting Mental Health Awareness

Mental health is an integral part of our holistic approach to education. We recognize that students may face various emotional and psychological challenges, and we strive to provide resources and support to help them navigate these difficulties. Our programs focus on:

  • Mental Health Education: Integrating mental health awareness into the curriculum to educate students about emotional well-being and coping strategies.
  • Counselling Services: Offering confidential counseling services to help students manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health issues.
  • Peer Support: Encouraging a supportive school community where students can share their experiences and support each other.

The Francis Ingham Legacy Fund

As part of our commitment to mental health, we are proud to highlight the Francis Ingham Legacy Fund. This fund was established in memory of Francis Ingham, a distinguished alumnus, with the generous support of an anonymous donor. The fund’s primary goal is to assist students who have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) by providing vital support to help them overcome emotional and psychological challenges.

Francis Ingham’s personal journey, profoundly shaped by his time at St Bede’s, serves as an inspiration. He expressed gratitude for the support he received at our college, which played a key role in his success. The Legacy Fund continues this tradition of support, ensuring that current students receive the assistance they need to thrive.

How You Can Contribute

We invite our community, including alumni, friends, and supporters, to contribute to the Francis Ingham Legacy Fund. Your donations will directly support students in need and help us continue to provide essential mental health resources.
