Young people follow a structured programme of age-appropriate activities for learning outside of classroom, which enables them to improve their wellbeing, succeed and build confidence.
All work is based upon protective behaviours and promoting positive mental health.
Our focus is on giving every child the opportunity to blossom within their family, school and community. CHEXS works with families by directly tackling behavioral and communication issues as well as confidence issues.
We are a preventative and early intervention specialist delivering a 11 year proven programme of success.
