Making a Difference Locally launches
\n\u2018The Mindful Fund\u2019\u00a0<\/strong>Supporting Wellbeing in Schools\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

We are thrilled to share that Co-op Wholesale\u2019s charity, Making a Difference Locally (MADL), has a brand-new funding initiative aimed at supporting wellbeing in schools. The initiative will fund up to two members of staff per school to join the MiSP Pathways and train to deliver our curricula to the children and young people they work with!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Mindful Fund will provide \u00a350,000\u00a0for Co-op Wholesale retail partners to apply for grants\u00a0to support a nominated individual in a local school to do our\u00a0.begin\u00a0<\/a>course followed by either the\u00a0Train to Teach\u00a0dots, Paws b, or .b course<\/a>, whichever is best suited to their setting. We recommend that\u00a0two staff members<\/strong>\u00a0from every school sign up to make this approach sustainable. If you are based in a Primary you can have one member of staff\u00a0trained to teach\u00a0dots for 3-6 year olds<\/a>\u00a0and the other\u00a0Paws b for 7-11 year olds<\/a>.<\/p>\n

MiSP is so grateful to MADL and to our Ambassador Esther Ghey for her role in supporting this wonderful new opportunity, inspired by the positive results of the Peace in Mind campaign funding mindfulness teacher training for staff in Warrington schools.<\/p>\n

The training equips educators with the tools to deliver mindfulness techniques in the classroom, helping young people to better manage stress, regulate emotions, and build resilience \u2013 essential skills in today\u2019s challenging world.<\/p>\n

The fund is open-ended and will remain available until all \u00a350,000 has been allocated, which will enable 31 schools across the UK to benefit.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to be launching The Mindful Fund through our Making a Difference Locally charity. By investing in training for individuals within schools, we can create a ripple effect that supports the\u00a0<\/em>wellbeing of countless young people. This fund not only empowers our partners to support their communities but also helps us take meaningful action to address the growing\u00a0challenges faced by young people today.\u201d<\/em>
\nKate Carroll, Social Value Lead at Co-op Wholesale<\/strong><\/p>\n

MADL is organising the funding through Nisa partners who are encouraged to apply soon to secure a place for a local school before the fund is fully utilised.<\/strong><\/p>\n

N.B. If you are a school interested in\u00a0MADL funding please contact your local Nisa store. Applications are only eligible through MADL and Co-op Wholesale\u00a0retail partners.<\/p>\n
