Mental Health Support for Makomborero Students

Starting 2023

We are so pleased to have been able to start Group Therapy sessions for our A-Level students this term. A local Zimbabwean company fully funded the programme allowing both our Internal and External A-Level students to have access to Group Therapy for the rest of 2023. The students, all aged 16-19, report that the sessions are helping immensely with their mental health. We have managed to get comments from a few of them.
