Promoting Well Being

The Sexual Health Team in conjunction with other partners have developed BOUNCE: a resource that promotes and supports the development of resilience in young people, focusing on the issues of relationships and sexual health, drugs including alcohol, and self-esteem

This resource will be of particular interest to:

•  Teachers and College Lecturers;
• Youth and Community Workers;
•  Social Workers;
•  School and Practice Nurses;
•  Others interested in working with young people in a group setting.

• Facilitate learning of core life skills, including the development of self-esteem and communication competence within relationships as essential skills.
•  Enhance health and well-being by developing life skills to manage risk and developing resilience to manage difficult situations during the adolescent years.
