IoM Youth Motor Project receives grant for mental health support

12-month project aims to help vulnerable young people

An Island project that uses positive psychology techniques to help young people improve their decision-making, build resilience and develop healthier coping mechanisms has received grant support from the Manx Lottery Trust.

The 12-month project entitled Developing Authentic Happiness and an Anti-Fragile Disposition is being run by the Isle of Man Youth Motor Project and aims to help vulnerable young people through using a range of techniques.

The grant of £10,840 is being awarded through the Trust's Community Awards Programme, which supports charitable and not for profit organisations across the Island.
