Learning, Amplifying and Influencing: Our Year in Reflection

Each year, our annual report gives us a moment to pause, take stock, and celebrate what we’ve learned together. This year’s overview of our Learning, Amplifying & Influencing captures not only the impact of our projects, but also the stories, connections, and experiments that are shaping the future of children and young people’s mental health across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

We often describe Fullscope as dot-connectors, a community of charities working across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough to weave together relationships, insights and innovation. In our report, we reflect on the projects, partnerships and lessons that are helping us reimagine how mental health and wellbeing support can look for children, young people and families.

Key Learnings

This year reinforced some truths we hold close:

• Young people’s leadership is transformational, not symbolic.

• Integration depends on relationships and trust, not policies alone.

• Co-creation produces tools and stories that resonate.

• Listening at the edges leads to shifts at the centre.

Looking ahead

As we enter the final year of our 2023–26 strategy, we remain committed to weaving stronger, more hopeful systems of care, ones that are integrated not just in name, but in practice. With our partners, funders, and community, we’ll continue to amplify young voices, nurture collaboration, and spark the bold changes our system needs.

This work is only possible because of the creativity, honesty, and courage of the children, young people, families, and partners who walk alongside us.

Together, we are showing that good outcomes at scale are possible.
