Each year, our annual report gives us a moment to pause, take stock, and celebrate what we’ve learned together.

For four years Fullscope have been working with young people, professionals and communities in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough to deepen understanding of self-harm and how young people can be better supported.

How can we hear from younger children about ‘what matters to them’? This was the question the Integrated Neighbourhood Team in East Cambridgeshire were interested in working with Fullscope to explore.

Over the past year, Fullscope has been working alongside a group of young people to create an online resource, Help You, Help Them. Read about the project, what we did, and what we’ve learned.
