Description

Voice Collective is a UK-wide, London-based project that supports children and young people who hear voices, see visions, have other ‘unusual’ sensory experiences or beliefs. We also offer support for parents/families, and training for youth workers, social workers, mental health professionals and other supporters. Our work is funded by BBC Children In Need and the John Lyon’s Charity.

If you, or someone you know, hears voices – you’re not alone.

Research shows that 1 in 5 young people under the age of 13 (and 1 in 12 of older teens) have experiences like these. To find out more, browse this website.

I just want to say a sincere thank you for this evening’s support group. I came away with so much more understanding of my son’s distress. You gave me great hope for his future, thank you.

This was so helpful and taught me to think of voices in an angle I had never thought of before - can voices be helpful …voices are not always a negative sign, that it is okay to acknowledge the voices with the young person, and to ask specifically what the voices say.
