A surge in the number of young children suffering from levels of anxiety has prompted the creation of a community wide positive well-being initiative led by St. Patrick's National School in Greystones, Co. Wicklow.

​

‘It Takes A Village’ is a positive well-being initiative borne out of concerns expressed by teachers in primary schools located in the Greystones and Delgany areas of County Wicklow. The initiative seeks to build a community of services to assist children, families and teachers in need of help with issues around anxiety in young children in the eight primary schools in the catchment area.
