Many teenagers are really struggling. Low self-worth, anxiety and a lack of confidence and motivation are prevalent. Girls are especially affected. According to Dove, 61% struggle with low self-esteem - fuelled by social media that encourages comparison, and accelerated by a pandemic that has dented social confidence. By the time they reach 18, girls are twice as likely to experience mental health conditions than boys, which inevitably has strong links with conditions such as anxiety, eating disorders, self-harming and low mood.
As a charity we want to help teenage girls build self-esteem and make good decisions.
Know Your Worth is a new charity that launched in Oxford to help teenage girls to grow in self-esteem. The main way to achieve this is through the delivery of an 8-week course which has an emphasis on self-esteem.
Demand for the course is growing. In response to these needs, we want to embark on a 3-year journey that allows us to deliver more groups in Oxfordshire, and train and licence youth leaders to deliver the course in their local area. If we can do it, we could support many more teenage girls with their self-esteem in Oxford and beyond.
