Be part of the thousands of people up and down the country who will be fundraising in February for Children's Mental Health Week 2026!

Children's Mental Health Week 2026 will take place from 9-15 February 2026. We're a mental health charity called Place2Be and we run the official Children's Mental Health Week. All money raised during the week will fund our mission of making sure that no child or young people has to face a mental health problem alone.

This year's theme is This is my place and we're encouraging peers, families, schools and communities to create an environment that embraces children and young people to have a sense of belonging.

Join us and make a difference to children and young people's mental health by getting involved in the week. Make sure you sign up to hear from us so you don't miss any news, updates or announcements about how you can take part.
