Parent Information Evening on Mental Health Issues

Parent Information Evening on Mental Health issues - Presented by Dick Moore

Who claimed that adolescence is just a phase?  Who suggested that being a parent is easy? Dick Moore, the parent of four often errant children and a headmaster for almost 23 years, embarked upon a mission to discover more about what makes young people tick and what he could or should have done during the challenging times!  He has a passion for adolescent mental health and wellbeing and will be exploring  how young people think, why adolescence is an especially vulnerable time and about common issues which can arise when the going gets tough. Finally, he will offer some tongue-in-cheek tips for parenthood…..
Dick has spoken at over 300 schools, universities, businesses and conferences both in the UK and overseas.  He gave a TEDx talk  in April 2015 and a Head Talk earlier this year. He has also appeared on BBC Breakfast, BBC Radio 5 Live, various local BBC radio stations and ITN News with Mary Nightingale.

We received a number of emails from parents after Dick’s last talk to parents including the comment below:
‘…… It’s a shame it’s not made a compulsory part of parenting. I know anyone listening to Mr Moore couldn’t fail to give mental health awareness more than just a passing thought and perhaps change the course of someone’s life.’
