A specialist school has unveiled a brand new therapy hub on their school grounds.
Greenfields Academy, which caters for social, emotional, mental health (SEHM) raised more than £20,000 towards the hub. It will be used to deliver confidential counselling to pupils as well other therapies including play therapy.
Play therapy is proven to improve confidentiality between pupils and their therapists and enhance their surroundings to increase positive outcomes for pupils.

As part of their fund-raising efforts, pupils had almost completed a Caterham Sigma Kit Car as part of their vocational lessons, when parts of it were stolen during a break-in last year.
Chris Armond, the former racing administrator at the Arima Race Club, has called time on his career.
The Jamaican, who was also a Technical Advisor at the Trinidad and Tobago Racing Authority, was honored on Sunday at Caymanas Park, Jamaica to mark the end of his illustrious career.
The Chris Armond Sprint was staged in his honor on Sunday, and Armond, 65, was there to present the trophy to the winner.
Armond’s career started as a horse race commentator where he excelled and was awarded the 1984 Press Association of Jamaica (PAJ) Golden Microphone Award.
He worked in Detroit, Michigan, doing commentary, and later moved into administration, where he had stints in Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados.
