THE

INVISIBLE

TRAUMA BACKPACK

FEELS HEAVY

For many children, the invisible scars of unresolved trauma weigh heavily (like an invisible backpack), affecting their learning, relationships, and overall wellbeing. By understanding trauma's impact, parents and educators can create safer, more supportive environments where all children can thrive.

1 in 3 children aged 2 to 14 in the UK have a diagnosable mental health disorder.

1 in 4 children in the UK experience some form of trauma before age 18.

Trauma informed schools can help mitigate the impact of adverse experiences.
