Feeling anxious? You’re not alone – and there are loads of ways to feel calmer and more in control. Everyone's different, so it’s about finding what works best for you.
Talk
Talk to a friend, someone at home – or look for staff wearing the ‘I’m here’ badge. It means they’re a safe person to go to if you’re feeling anxious, low or just need someone to listen.
